Hello, I don't know what's current status of Unicode support in Mono project, but it seems from the archives that there's a Unicode-on-Win9x wrapper in use (http://mono.eurosoft.od.ua/files/unimono.zip, "unicode wrapper" thread on this list). I'd like to draw your attention to another implementation of unicows.dll wrapper which has several advantages: - it doesn't require any source code modifications (no #include "unimono.h") - its only a static import library, no more DLLs are needed - is partially implemented in assembler and there's *no* runtime overhead when compared to an Unicode app that doesn't use libunicows
Bellow is the original announcement: ----------------------------------------------- Version 0.5 of libunicows, a compiler-independent open source implementation of MSLU import library, was released and is available for download from http://libunicows.sourceforge.net. Precompiled binaries for Visual C++ and Mingw32 are included (help with other compilers is wanted). MSLU (The Microsoft Layer for Unicode on Windows® 95/98/ME Systems) is a compatibility layer that makes it possible to run Unicode applications on Windows 9x systems (previously, Unicode APIs were only available on Windows NT/2000; see http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/Articles/mslu_announce.asp for details). Necessary runtime DLLs can be downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/release.asp?releaseid=30039 MSLU requires that you use a special statically-linked import library that is currently only provided for Microsoft Visual C++ and only as a part of the (rather large) new Platform SDK. Libunicows addresses both of these problems by being small and available in source code form.
