In anticipation of your response... char is the type that has been used to
represent a character in C for a very long time now, in fact I've read that
it dates back to the same time as C's if keyword. TCHAR is a newish type
defined by Microsoft that is equivalent to a char when doing a non-Unicode
build and equivalent to a wide char (WCHAR) when doing a Unicode build.
OpenSSL is platform-independant and therefore does not use such
Microsoft-specific types in it's interface. If you wish to use OpenSSL on a
Unicode system such as Windows CE you may at times need to convert between
ASCII char's and Unicode WCHAR's. This is not a problem specific to
OpenSSL, nor To Windows CE; it is a requirement of mixing ASCII and Unicode
in a single program. The Win32 functions WideCharToMultiByte and
MultiByteToWideChar will help you with the conversions.

Steven

Subject: RE: openssl for windows ce tchar problem
Can you give me an example of an OpenSSL function that uses a char type
where you expect to be able to use a TCHAR type?

Subject: openssl for windows ce tchar problem
Hi,
i'm building a windows ce project for pocket pc 2002 with the openssl 0.9.7b
e wcecompat support.
I have some problems using TCHAR type in functions defined in openssl
include files (.h) and libraries, but i must use TCHAR type for the correct
visualization about the device!
Why openssl libraries for windows ce using char type and not TCHAR type?
it's normal? How I do?
Thanks for any suggestions
