How to deal with std::wstring with Visual Studio
i am designing a program to read records of data into a vector of structure
typedef struct _recordEntry
{
wstring name;
wstring description;
int ID;
} RECORDENTRY;
In the file, I have records like the following
name1, "This is name1 description", 123
name2, "This is name2 description", 234
name3, "This is name3 description", 345
I am trying to read in a line at a time, then tokenize using boost::tokenizer.
My question is how do I create a visual studio project that will use wstring and how can I use corresponding boost::tokenizer that is for wstring?

How do I display wstring content?

BTW, you get 'Record: 00C50A0C;00C53790' because 'cout' interprets UNICODE strings as a hexadecimal value. That's why you need 'wcout' instead, as it interprets them correctly as UNICODE text.

RECORDENTRY *pRecordEntry;
std::cout << "Record: "<< pRecordEntry->name << ";" << pRecordEntry->description << std::endl;
