hi,
i've some C and C++ code written. I'll speak about the C++ code
here.
All of the text user interface is with printfs and scanf. They are
all ascii characters. They are working well on english . Now i have to
change these
cout "Select 1 for choosing option billing \n") ; to japanese ,
chinese etc.
One option would be to use GNU gettext but there are issue with GPL
code. So i have to use plain C++.
My idea is to store for each language a prefix code and the string in
seperate file
like for japanese , str_ja
1 "japanse string for choosing optino billing"
2 " japenase optin for chooseing the payment mode"
str_cn similar.
Will replacing the string with wstring and cout with wcout and
reading string with wcin work or is there something else along with
wcout,to be done ? .
I fail to understand the relevance of converting from wstring to
string. Isn't wstring supposed to accomodate strings . Then why do
people do that or the other way round?
What do you guys use or recommend in such situations or how to design
such tasks ?
