boost :: format和wchar_t

Question

I am trying to format a string using boost:

wchar_t *msg;
// fill msg
boost::format("Error: %s") % msg).str()

What I get instead of msg's content, is the address of msg in hex.

No success with things like these:

boost::format("Error: %s") % new std::wstring(msg)
boost::format("Error: %1%") % msg

Note: Even though I think it's irrelevant, but the way that I fill msg is:

FormatMessage(FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM | FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER | 40, NULL, GetLastError(), MAKELANGID(0, SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US), (LPTSTR) &msg, 512, NULL);

and Visual Studio Watch displays the content of msg correctly.

Answer 1

尝试使用boost::wformat来处理wchar_t字符串。

Answer 2

You can either use boost::wformat as suggested by wilx. Or you can change your format string to use "%ls" (where the l is the letter ell , small L.) This modifies the "%s" to expect wide character strings.
