Re: Write/Read of wchar in buffer/file

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Let me see if I understand... you want to write a Unicode string to a file
that may or may not contain non-Unicode characters and then read them back.
I've never done that, but it sounds problematic to me. If it were me I'd do
the whole thing in Unicode then use CFile to do the file handling. That
said, I think you can still use CFile, I just think your file will be
difficult to parse.
