Unicode/CStdioFile problem

I have an app that worked fine under MBCS in VC6 but is broken now
under unicode in VC7. The app writes text files using CStdioFile. A
standard doc/view pair of classes allows the user to read the text
files back in for editing. When the files get read in, two bytes from
the file get pushed into one Unicode character. I thought Serialize
was supposed to handle this. What am I doing wrong?

I'm trying to grab a document off the Web and toss it into a MySQL database, but I keep running into the various encoding problems with Unicode (that aren't a problem for me with GB2312, BIG 5, etc.) What I'd like is something as simple as: CREATE TABLE junk (junklet VARCHAR(2500) CHARACTER SET UTF8)); import MySQLdb, re,urllib

python-dev@python.org.] The PEP has been rewritten based on a suggestion by Guido to change str() rather than adding a new built-in function. Based on my testing, I believe the idea is feasible. It would be helpful if people could test the patched Python with their own applications and report any incompatibilities. PEP: 349

I have a CStdioFile object called finput, and it is used to read in data from a file and do stuff to that data. After this has been done, I want to use the same object to read the same data (which has been modified). But at that point, it would have already reached the end of file, so it won't read anything. How can you reset CStdioFile to start from the beginning again?

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
