Re: CString + unicode

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

You should investigate the T2A macro. And ;you should contact your third-party vendor
about the availability of Unicode support, because in the real world this library is going
to be an abject failure when you suddenly move to a locale that requires Unicode.

Hi,

Ok I have compiled my application with unicode character set. So I have
a bunch of CStrings which I am assuming now are all wide character
representations since I set my project to use unicode encoding.

I have a 3rd party library which takes arguments like this:

bool DoSomething(const char *pszArgument);

And I have an argument like:

CString strPath = _T("something awesome");

How could I pass that through? Am I in big trouble? What if this is
supposed to go on a japanese windows installation? That will probably
not work then yeah?

Thanks!
