Crate wchar

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

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);

Macros

include_wch	Generate a UTF-16 or UTF-32 wide string from a UTF-8 encoded file.
include_wchz	Generate a UTF-16 or UTF-32 wide string from a UTF-8 encoded file.
wch	Generate a UTF-16 or UTF-32 wide string from a string literal.
wchz	Generate a C-style nul-terminated UTF-16 or UTF-32 wide string from a string literal.
