C++ OutputDebugStringW with newline

I want to attach a new line to the OutputDebugStringW.

OutputDebugStringW(Item.pItem);

pItem is a LPCWSTR, not a wstring, so I could not directly add new line by saying + "/n".

Can somebody help?

Solution

  • Just output the newline in a separate call to OutputDebugStringW:

    OutputDebugStringW(Item.pItem);
OutputDebugStringW(L"\n");

    If for some reason you only want to make a single call to OutputDebugStringW, build a string first:

    std::wstringstream ss;
ss << Item.pItem << L"\n";
OutputDebugStringW(ss.str().c_str());
