  Variables values of Unicode hex values are incorrectly represent

  With an EGL source code module which converses lower case charac
  ters to uppercase or removes specials characters with the univer
  sal equivalent, to make the conversion possible a table is initi
  alized with Unicode hex values on record level.
  
  The generated code outputs the correct values at runtime but whe
  n stepping through with the EGL debugger the value given for the
  se variables is interpreted as a single byte character and not a
  s a Unicode hexadecimal representation.

  The code was not saving the literal type (in this case Hex
  Unicode) when a record was embedded in another record.

• The code has been changed so that the literal type is now
  preserved
