VC++ projects on Japanese OS not compile on English OS

[am 2009]

I have one VC++ projects which was build on VS2003 on japanese windows XP OS, but when i compile same program on VS2003 English XP,i have found syntax error related to ; { }. My code contains some japanese characters as string. Is it necessary to compile project on japanese OS only? Thanks Atul

It shouldn't matter which OS you are compiling on. It is probably an issue with code pages. You may need to save the source file in UTF-8 format before you compile. If this still has problems, can you post a code sample and the errors so we can see what is happening.

We cannot guess what these errors might be, please show your code and the related messages.

This should not be a problem as long as you have the Japanese language pack installed.

The safest thing to do is have only ASCII in your source code, and use escape sequences (like \x1234) for characters outside of the ASCII range.
