Hi exits,
I know it's ugly but I have doing this: (short is two bytes)
#ifdef _WIN32
//windows uses UTF-16 and xerces does the same,
//so this is quite simple
const wchar_t *buf = a.rawBuffer();
#else
//gcc uses something else.
//a wchar_t is a long int there
const unsigned short * buf = a.rawBuffer();
char * buf_copy = new char[a.length() + 1];
unsigned int a_length;
for (a_length = 0; a_length < a.length(); a_length++)
{
if (*(buf + a_length) > 127 )
throw udm_exception("Non ASCII characters are not supported on this platform!");
*(buf_copy + a_length) = *(buf + a_length);
};
*(buf_copy + a_length) = '\0';
#endif
Endre

Hello,
I'm in the process of porting a windows app which uses xerces-c 2.5.0 (SAX) to Linux (g++). The application uses wchar_t internally for all it's string manipulation including it's interactions with the xerces sax parser. I'm getting compiler errors on linux. If I understand the situation correctly, this is because XMLChar is two bytes on all platforms which matches wchar_t on Windows but not on Linux on which wchar_t is four bytes.
Maybe this isn't strictly speaking a xerces question but I figure the people on this list must have experience with the issue. I'd like to leave as much of the code using wchar_t as possible, and only make changes when required to interact with xerces. For example, in ContentHandler::characters( ), I'd like to copy the XMLCh* data returned, to wchar_t on both platforms. Will XMLString::transcode( ) do what I want? I'm a little confused. Thanks for any guidance anyone can offer.
