Surprisingly, neither the C++ runtime library nor the Win32 Platform SDK provides any routines to read and write Unicode text files. This article provides high performance routines to read all types of Unicode files (both UTF-16 and UTF-8) as well as ANSI files.

I am a self-employed Windows and Mac developer working from home. I work mostly in C++, although I use C# for the code-behind pages on my website, and the more I use it the more I like it. Application areas include cleaning up digital audio and PC remote control. I have been programming for over 30 years and so must surely qualify as an old fart.
