    C Datatype WCHAR

    This one is driving me crazy

    is there a C++ equivalent for the WCHAR datatype?

    WCHAR, The win32 type? Unix type?

    If in Unix, then, according to stdlib.h, wchar_t is a built in type. If you are talking abouta WCHAR in Win32, then a WCHAR is just a simple typedef and is it's own equivalent...
