TCHAR* to WCHAR*
Author
I'm using c++ and I need to cast a value in a TCHAR* (char*) to a WCHAR*. The normal typecast ((WCHAR*)strtchar) works when compiling, but doesn't work on runtime. Could someone please tell me how I can do this? Thank you in advance.

TCHAR compiles differently depending on whether you have UNICODE defined for your project. If UNICODE is not defined, a TCHAR is the same as a char. If UNICODE is defined, then a TCHAR is a wchar_t.
Having said that, the conversion functions you are probably looking for are mbstowcs() and wcstombs() (MBS stands for ''multi-byte string'' and wcs is ''wide character string''). Look on msdn.microsoft.com for the exact arguments.
