Hi,

Finally back to programming again =D, and while doing so, I came across a problem with memory_mapped_file's char_type. Why is it fixed to ws_char_a_t?

I couldn't find anything on the WinPSDK that states that only Ansi characters can be used, so am I right in guessing it's only an oversight?

No hurry, just asking ;)


Cheers,
Pablo

I take it you mean: "Having to use multibyte on an NT system is inefficient, as well as being a pain to code to in a UNICODE build."?

If so, I agree.

As it happens, I'm making some mods to the mmf classes (UNIXSTL & WinSTL),
so will try and slip in a fix for that also. ;-)
