Question : is fw_parWide() the same as AnsiToWide() :?: No. if the parameter is UTF8 it uses "MultiByteToWideChar()", Windows API function and if not, then it is ANSI and uses AnsiToWide() See: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/stringapiset/nf-stringapiset-multibytetowidechar ...

Hakan,

We need to find which function is calling MultiByteToWideChar as many functions from FWH and Harbour call it

... void f(BSTR ms_str) { std::wstring ws(ms_str); } //*--------------- BSTR ConvertMBSToBSTR(const std::string& str) { int wslen = ::MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, 0 /* no flags */, str.data(), str.length(), NULL, 0); BSTR wsdata = ::SysAllocStringLen(NULL, wslen); ::MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, ...

Maurizio,

Please try this:

TCHAR * wName = ( TCHAR * ) hb_xgrab( len * sizeof( TCHAR ) );

MultiByteToWideChar( CP_ACP, 0 ,pW , -1 , wName, sizeof( wName ) / sizeof( wName[ 0 ] ) );
PDC_ExtTextOut(hPrDC,100,100, 0, NULL, wName, len * sizeof( TCHAR ) , NULL);

... : error C2133: 'wName' : unknown size Where : 147 - LPSTR pW = hb_parc( 1 ) ; 148 - int len = hb_parclen( 1 ); 149 - TCHAR wName[ len ]; 150 - MultiByteToWideChar( CP_ACP, 0 ,pW , -1 , wName, len * 2 ); Regards MAurizio

... the conversion in TCAHR now I found the solution : LPSTR pW ; pW = hb_parc( 1 ) ; int lenwName ; lenwName = sizeof(pW) ; TCHAR wName[sizeof(pW)]; MultiByteToWideChar( CP_ACP, 0 ,pW , -1 , wName, sizeof( wName ) / sizeof( wName[ 0 ] ) ); PDC_ExtTextOut(hPrDC,200,200, 0, NULL, wName, _tcslen(wName) ...

... lo solucionemos, ya que los textos se pasan a unicode y por lo visto no estamos usando los parámetros correctos en la conversión a unicode usando MultiByteToWideChar() gracias! :-)

... Latin/Brazilian characters. The accented char is wrong displayed in preview (dialogs). When we build the resource in memory we use Windows MultiByteToWideChar() to generate an unicode string. The source code is in source\winapi\ctrl2chr. We may need to find the right parameters for accented ...

... un problema asi con una impresora irda y hacia lo mismo.. puros cuadritos y basura en general. lo resolvi utilizando la funcion del api de windows MultiByteToWideChar() un ejemplo de su utilizacion es: const int tamano = 20; const int arraysize = sizeof(TCHAR)*tamano; const int arraysizeW ...

muchas gracias !! ya resolvi el problema.. no utilize ansitowide() existe una funcion llamada MultiByteToWideChar() que es mas segura, y el problema con hb_parc() era justamente la conversion ANSI -> UNICODE
