    Probably an array of WCHARs, that is, a string, which is initialized to all zeros? . . . .

    Zeroed WCHAR is not a NULL terminator in Unicode?

    Thanks

    Are you asking whether strings consisting of Microsoft's WCHAR use '\0' (a NULL terminator) to terminate strings just like ordinary C strings? If so, I think the answer is yes.
