You are lucky that that worked.

The exception is actually coming from your use of << with the standard C ++ stream. The standard C++ streams can't do UTF-8 so there is an automatic conversion. See "streams input/output" here: http://www.gtkmm.org/docs/glibmm-2.4/docs/reference/html/classGlib_1_1ustring.html#_details The answer, I think, is Just don't use std::cout and friends to show UTF-8. -- Murray Cumming murr...@murrayc.com www.murrayc.com www.openismus.com _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
