Detailed Description

Concept which describes a character encoding type which is binary compatible with a given character encoding type.

Examples: UE::CCompatibleCharType<ANSICHAR, ANSICHAR> == true // Any character type is compatible with itself UE::CCompatibleCharType<int, int> == false // ints are not character types UE::CCompatibleCharType<ANSICHAR, WIDECHAR> == false // ASCII is not binary compatible with wide strings (different sizes) UE::CCompatibleCharType<ANSICHAR, UTF8CHAR> == true // ASCII is binary compatible with UTF-8 UE::CCompatibleCharType<UTF8CHAR, ANSICHAR> == false // UTF-8 is not binary compatible with ANSI
