wchar

build status crates.io docs.rs

This library introduces two macros to create UTF-16 and UTF-32 wide strings at compiler time, like L string literals in C.

[dependencies]
wchar = "0.10"

Compiler support: requires rustc 1.53+

Example

use wchar::{wch, wchz, wchar_t};

// Equivalent to `#define RUST L"Rust"` in C.
const RUST: &[wchar_t] = wch!("Rust\0"); // C strings are nul-terminated.
// Equivalent to `#define ALSO_RUST L"Rust"` in C.
const ALSO_RUST: &[wchar_t] = wchz!("Rust");

assert_eq!(RUST, &['R' as wchar_t, 'u' as wchar_t, 's' as wchar_t, 't' as wchar_t, 0x0000]);
assert_eq!(RUST, ALSO_RUST);
