Hello,


I would like to display japanese text in opengl.

Basically I m using the same code as found on the web using:
wglUseFontBitmaps(hDC, 0, 255, nBaseList);

and

glCallList(myText.GetLength(), GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, (const 
char*)myText.GetString());


and I try to display japanese text directly.

But on the screen I only have grabage character.

I looked for more information on this in the archive but I haven t found 
any solution.

Any hints on what to look for ?

Thanks a lot,

Dlp

Ok Stop !

I found the jtext.c example from microsoft and this seems to work 
correctly (but I m no more using wglUseFontBitmap ... why this is not 
working ?)

Thanks !

If you are using unicode, then you shouldn't be casting the string to 
char*, but wchar_t* instead.
In fact, use TCHAR's instead through your program, so you don't need to 
worry about unicode/non-unicode versioning.
