Hello Programmers,

May be very simple question..infact I am new in unicode world.

How to convert unsigned char datatype to unicode equivalent.

As I understand, tchar.h has all unicode related datatypes, we need to use this header file and replace all char with TCHAR...but I am not sure about unsigned char??

Should I change as unsigned TCHAR????

Regards,
Joy

Usually unsigned char buffers contain binary data. Why do you want to convert such data into UNICODE?

There is a definition for _TUCHAR in tchar.h for unsigned character, but it will depend on your usage whether this is the right type.
