EclipseCDT Unicode puzzles me.

[ylxin1993]

In vs2010, I create an empty win32 console application--> windows app, the default character setting is unicode, I have to put the

L

before a string, but when I copy my code from vs2010 to eclipse, it doesn't, it says

cannot convert 'const wchar_t*' to 'LPCSTR'

, I know it is because eclipse default is not unicode, needn't put

L

before string, I want to know how to setting unicode in ecplipse .

Add this before including windows.h or any other header file:

#define UNICODE
#define _UNICODE 

Alternatively, add UNICODE and _UNICODE to preprocesor definitions in Eclipse.
