Sorry, here is the corrected example:
std::string aFileName = "E:/Some/File.txt";
std::wstring_convert<std::codecvt_utf8_utf16<wchar_t>, wchar_t> converter;
std::wstring vFileName = converter.from_bytes(aFileName);
FILE *in_stream = _wfopen(vFileName.c_str(), L"rb");
// in_stream is NULL here
The same code with fopen() on the original std::string works:
std::string aFileName = "E:/Some/File.txt";
FILE *in_stream = fopen(aFileName.c_str(), "rb");
// in_stream is a correctly opened file here
All the best,
Mario Emmenlauer
