We have of course one other options:
On linux: char_type is wchar_t
docstring is wstring
On windows: char_type is uint32_t
docstring is basic_string<uint32_t>
Perhaps that is the easiest solution after all?
Works only for MSVC. Will still fail for MinGW and Cygwin.
Exactly. If we decide to not support MinGW and Cygwin anymore then this is
indeed the easiest solution. IIRC I already sent a patch that does exactly
this some time ago. If we decide to support MinGW and Cygwin, then it will
not work, since they don't have any wchar_t, not even a 16 bit one.
But I've seen ports of Gcc-4 to mingw and cygwin. That would solve the
problem, wouldn't it? Enrico, would you comment on that?
Abdel.
