How to TURN UNICODE ON.
-
Hi all. Using TCHAR is fine, but i wanted to know if there would be a way of turning UNICODE on for my application (#define _UNICODE does nothing). Needed for testing (I fear LOTS of errors X| ). Please help.

Have you also defined
UNICODE(in addition to_UNICODE)? Make sure they are both defined as close to the top ofstdafx.has possible. With both defined,TCHARwill resolve tounsigned short. Otherwise it will resolve tochar.

Txs. This was fast. Now how do i get i get sprintf working. (i do not want to use swprintf because it is unicode only) For printf there is at least _tprintf , but i can find anything for sprintf. Is there an euivelent and if not how can i redirect the ourput to a TCHAR variable. Thx in advance.

#ifdef _UNICODE
swprintf(...);
#else
sprintf(...);
#end

Thx again. Now everything works perfectly but the code is unreadable :rolleyes:

Try looking at this article[^] in the MSDN. It describes the tchar.h mappings, which include
_TCHARequivalents for virtually all of the C runtime string routines.

for that u have to change settings. step1: go to project->settings->c/c++->cateogery in that select preprocessor. in preprocessor defnitions txt box _MBCS to _UNICODE step2: in link tab goto category.select output. in entry point textbox write this 'wWinMainCRTStartup' Thats all.
