Hi everyone,

I am going to program an application which uses a lot of ascii file I/O
using fopen, fprintf etc. What I need now is just one routine that provides
writing a unicode text file since this has to be interchanged with a Windows
CE device.

Have a look at the following snippet:

    String s1 = "%s\n";     // terminating format
    String s3 = "%s;";      // separation format string
    String s2 = "This is the file header";
    String s4 = "w";
    filestring = DbPath + "xyz.txt";
    wchar_t fmt[10], item[500], fmtField[10], filename[200], hd[300], rw[3];

    StringToWideChar(s1, fmt, 10);
    StringToWideChar(s3, fmtFeld, 10);
    StringToWideChar(s2, hd, 300);
    StringToWideChar(filestring, filename, 200);

    if ((outfile = _wfopen(filename, rw)) == NULL)
    {
        Application->MessageBox(MesText->Strings[4].c_str(), "Something",
MB_OK);
        return 0;
    }

    fwprintf(outfile, fmt, hd);

    ......followed by the block of data which is "fwprinted" to the file in
the same way.


    So far, so good. But the resulting file doesn't have UNICODE characters,
it is pure ASCII.

Has anyone got a solution how to write a unicode text file with the standard
CPP methods??
I also would like to know whether it is possible to convert Strings directly
to UNICODE like it is with Visual C++  (The macro _T("string")).

Thanks,
Ulrich
