Re: struct values and VC++/MFC

I'm not sure why that would happen either, in fact it shouldn't. And 'int' and 'wchar_t' are very different. There is a setting in the project properties on teh C++/Language tab that allows you to "Treat wchar_t as a built-in type", but I'm not sure would affect that.

I'm moving all of my projects to Unicode. It does use more memory for strings, but the difference in ease of maintenance is worth it in my opinion.

This article is from a older verison of VS, but it will still give you some good background:

You should know about these macros if you are using MFC or ATL:

Would you happen to know of a good tutorial on unicode. I don't use it much and I still don't really understand why using unicode would interpret an int as a wchar_t.

Hi David,

I've noticed this as well. VS 2005 tends to modify projects when converting them or creating them new to set them to use Unicode. I think this is intentional, but it has confused many people.

2005 that is the problem.

VS2005 projects are Unicode by default.
