Description Shternlib 2004-07-14 03:17:22 CDT

I tried to compile TAO with -DUNICODE. But it throws errors:
Cannot convert 'char *' to 'const wchar_t *' in function
Options::parse_args(int, char * *)
and so on - total 12 errors.

If I don't use -DUNICODE it compiles successful.
ACE has compiled with unicode option successful.

TAO isn't supported to be build as Unicode so far as I know. Anyone else can 
confirm this, be aware, this report is about the Borland compiler, when -
DUNICODE is set then -DACE_USES_WCHAR is added to the compiler options and this 
is not supported or it is?

Accepting this bug and a known problem. I thought we had a bugzilla entry for 
this. I have not been able to find that one. Let htis bug be in our database, 
and I am not sure when we will get to this.

Thanks
