java native Unicode <--> C++ Strings

[Dirk Bromberg]

Hi all,

i've implemented a wrapper from Managed C++ to Java. Now i've som
trouble with exchanging text with chinese chars...

I have an Managed C++ String* (->UNICODE<-) and want to create a new
Java String, but how must i convert to have the right encoding?

Any ideas?

Is this a problem with Unicode and the Multibyte Character Set ??

Thx

Dirk

As far as I know, the physical representation of Unicode strings used by both
C# and Java is as a sequence of 16-bit values (miscalled "char"s in both
languages) which are the UTF-16 encoding of the abstract Unicode text.

I.e. you're golden. No conversion to do, just copy the chars.
