Hi -
I have a question that I am sure is a basic UNICODE question for
anyone out there with UNICODE experience.
I simply would like to see a non-Latin unicode character printed to my
console.
To do that, I have been attempting to:
(a) wcout << (wchar_t)38 << endl; // should print a semicolon
(latin)
and
(b) wcout << (wchar_t)297 << endl; // should print the copyright
symbol (latin supplemental)
or
(c) wcout << (wchar_t)8240 << endl; // should print the permil symbol
I have gotten (a) to work. (b) and (c) do not and I would be
interested to know why. I am assuming that I should also be able to
print out a kanji character or hangul (Korean) character, for example.
I've tried using different console fonts. I am wondering if I need to
setlocale().
Thanks... 3 1750

You'll have to ask this question on whatever group covers your
implementation. C++ doesn't mention UNICODE.

some versions of windows do not support anything other than pure ASCII in
consoles (e.g. the 9x/ME series). I think that those that do (e.g. the NT
platforms) will require you to change the console's code page setting to
whatever locale you are trying to use. I don't *believe* consoles can use
unicode, although I may be wrong...

I wrote something like your code and it worked fine in Windows XP:
wchar_t msg[100];
......
wprintf(L"La cigüeña come ñandúes %s\n", msg);
But when I ported that code to Linux, the console just showed:
La cig
I think that the terminal implementation in Linux does not allow Unicode
characters, but I cannot ensure it.
Best regards
Ernesto
