_wfopen equivalent under Mac OS X

Question

I\'m looking to the equivalent of Windows _wfopen() under Mac OS X. Any idea?

I need this in order to port a Windows library that uses wchar* for its File i

Answer 1

I have read file name from configuration UTF8 file through wifstream (it uses wchar_t buffer).

Mac implementation is different from Linux and Windows. wifstream reads each byte from file to separate wchar_t cell in the buffer. So we have 3 empty bytes, although open requires char string. Thus programmer can use wcstombs function to convert wide character string to multi-byte string.

The API supports UTF8. For better understanding use memory watcher and hex editor for your file.
