String macro as wchar_t pointer?

[Heiner]

Hi!

#define TEST "this is a test"
const char * test = TEST;
const wchar_t * wtest = ???;

What must I write, to get TEST evaluated to L"this is a test" at compile
time?

const wchar_t * wtest = L"" TEST;

.... taking advantage of string literal concatenation:
When a wide-string literal L"" is concatenated with a
char-string literal, the result is wide.

That's it. Thank you very much!
