Re: Are _T() and TEXT() macros equivalent?

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

I always use _T(), but I'm guessing it wouldn't matter. You could easily define these macros in any port you did and there are so many other things that would cause you grief doing a port that this would likely not be top on your pain list.

Hello everybody!

I'd like to find out once and for all: can I always use _T() in place
of TEXT() and vice versa? If yes, why has _T() been added into
tchar.h? Wasn't TEXT() enough for us?

Thanks in advance

Hmm, I think I found the reason for defining '_T()'. 'TEXT()' is a
Windows specific macro (it's defined in winnt.h), so _T() is more
portable, am I right, what do you think?

Thanks,
Martin
