MinGW sits on top of Windows, which is UCS-16 - that is, any unicode string must use wide characters throughout, so any "normal" string has to be translated. The default behaviour of Windows is to assume that such traditional strings are CP1252 or some such, and therefore make the wrong translation to UCS when presented with UTF-8. _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
