cwidechar

integer, printf: is there a way to write an integer as a wide char to console without locale.h?


Suppose I have a Unicode codepoint c (a uint32). Is there a way to print this integer to console (as a wide character) without using locale.h or wchar.h?


Solution

  • You can try to use

    printf("%lc", c);
    

    though you really need to make sure that c is a wint_t (which requires wchar.h) rather than a uint32_t, even though the two are most likely the same type...
