Title
Body
I had the code: std::string st = "SomeText"; ... std::cout << st; and that worked fine. But now my team wants to move to wstring . So I tried: std::wstring st = "SomeText"; ... std::cout << st; but this gave me a compilation error: Error 1 error C2664: 'std::basic_string<_Elem,_Traits,_Ax>::basic_string(const std::basic_string<_Elem,_Traits,_Ax> &)' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'const char [8]' to 'const std::basic_string<_Elem,_Traits,_Ax> &' D:...\TestModule1.cpp 28 1 TestModule1 After searching the web I read that I should define it as: std::wstring st = L"SomeText"; // Notice the "L" ... std::cout << st; this compiled but prints "0000000000012342" instead of "SomeText" . What am I doing wrong ?
