[Gdal-dev] GDAL on WinCE?

[Alain Rist]

Franck,

WinCE systems are Unicode only.

You can process char, char*, char& and char[] types as usual, but any string transfer with the system ( file names, error messages etc..) is Unicode.

Many places in GDAL code embed such strings. All these char* or char[] should be changed to TCHAR ( a macro that expands to wchar_t if Unicode is enabled ) , without touching the real char type used in the formats. 

By the way, Unicode enabling GDAL is a very good idea : if coupled with grouping of all message strings and hard-coded names in some resource location, it would open the possibility for non english speakers to use GDAL !

But if it is on your TODO list, I am afraid it gets a very bad scoring.

Thanks for all anyway.

Alain
