It only says that it follows ISO-10646, but says nothing about it being a 32 bit version (see http://unicode.org/faq/unicode_iso.html#3). The wikipedia entry also mentions that UTF-16 was an early extension to UCS-2 (and by implication also supported by ISO-10646). The character codes are the same as those supported by Unicode (in fact 106464 seems to be the Unicode character code point values but without all of the sorting, script, locale etc support). The encodings are independent of the code set. Dale -- dstanbro@spam.o.matic.bigpond.net.au
