Hi Everyone,
I want to use Unicode in my source code. I am generating a database randomly and for that I am using the following code;

Qt Code:

Switch view

#define COUNT (20)
 
char* ppcFirstNames[COUNT] = {"à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•",
										"à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•",
										"à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•",
										"à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•"};

#define COUNT (20)

char* ppcFirstNames[COUNT] = {"à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•",
										"à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•",
										"à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•",
										"à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•","à¦•à¦«à¦œà¦—à§à¦²à¦¸à§à¦•"};

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

But when I am trying this it gives me the following warning and it stores some funny characters in my database;

warning C4566: character represented by universal-character-name '\u09CD' cannot be represented in the current code page (1252)

Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
