Wchar_t vs char

P
pat

I wanted to use Cryptlex on a multi platform program. Is there a way to use Cryptlex always with char or with wchar_t, whatever the underlying OS? So far, I’ve started to use Cryptlex for the windows build, now that I want to test with the linux build, I realize that I have to change many functions in my code to manage wchar_t/char depending the OS while I wasn’t expecting this.
Wouldn’t it be possible to always use char assuming that it does encode UTF8 for instance?

Hi Pat,

If you want to use LexActivator on a multi os’s, then you will have to use #ifdefs as done in our sample code. You can download the sample code from the link below:
