printing wide characters to strings...

hello everyone,

i have a for looop that iterates through an array of bytes, each two byte sequence is a 2 byte wide character, i need to print each two byte sequence to a wchar_t array. I have written some code but i need a few pointers on where to go from here:

Code:

---

        for(i = 0 ; i < name_len ; i++){
                swprintf(&file_name[i], 1, L"%C",((((u8_t *)p->payload)[i+6] << 8) | ((u8_t *)p->payload)[i+6+1]));
                printf("%C",file_name[i]);
                }

---

but that yields a 00000000... etc array

thanks for your help!

shouldn't you cast to uint16 before <<8 ?

also - I'm not sure that using %C in swprintf is a right thing to print wide char
Have you checked the docs?
