Thanks a lot for the valuable information.
I am trying to port my application developed in linux to windows, now as
it is quite clear that I could not use cygwin, due to lack of Unicode support,
is there any other alternative to try out my porting activity.
Thanking you all once again for the great help.

Hi All,
I was trying to compile my code on Cygwin[1.5.25-11] with GCC[4.1.2],
but I am not able to build with errors on wstring.
I tried to test a simple application which uses wstring, like
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
int main( )
{
using namespace std;
const basic_string <wchar_t> s1 ( L"abc" );
wstring s2 ( L"abc" ); // Uses the typedef for wstring
if ( s1 == s2 )
cout << "The strings s1 & s2 are equal." << endl;
else
cout << "The strings s1 & s2 are not equal." << endl;
}
and on compiling I am getting the following error..
-->g++ main.cpp -o main
main.cpp: In function `int main()':
main.cpp:8: error: `wstring' undeclared (first use this function)
main.cpp:8: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each fu
nction it appears in.)
main.cpp:8: error: expected `;' before "s2"
main.cpp:9: error: `s2' undeclared (first use this function)
I searched on the net but could not get any thing recent or useful. Some old forum threads[2005] say that
it was not supported.
Any advice or pointer will be of great help.
Thanks & Regards
Vipin
