Accented chars problem

[fortikur]

I want to print accented characters (like éáőü) on a button. I know, I have to use a wchar_t. This is how I tried to do it:

main.cpp

Code: Select all

 char szov[20];
 FILE *fh;
 fh=_wfopen(L"res\\textx.txt",L"r");
 fscanf(fh,"%s",&szov);
 fclose(fh);   

env->addButton(rect<s32>(10,210,120,230), 0, 101, wide(szov)); 

In a .h file:

Code: Select all

wchar_t* wide(char *a){
int p;
for(p=0;p<strlen(a);p++){
   buf[p]=a[p];
                            }
   buf[p]='\0';
return buf;
}

I know this code could be optimised to death, but now I'm only concerned about its working.
I tried with the wsprintf thing, but Gcc showed me an error...

If I write:
env->addButton(rect<s32>(10,210,120,230), 0, 101, L"éáőúü");
it works fine, but there is something wrong with my function that returns the string.
What am I missing here?

If you copy a char* to wchar_t* you'll never get the correct chars. you have to use mbstowcs() for it.

Thank you. I will try it.
I hope this will solve the problem
