* [*Question:] Why `boost::lexical_cast<int>(L'A');` outputs 65 and `boost::lexical_cast<wchar_t>(L"65");` does not throw?
|
||||
* [*Answer:] If you are using an old version of Visual Studio or compile code with /Zc:wchar_t- flag,
|
||||
`boost::lexical_cast` sees single `wchar_t` character as `unsigned short`. It is not a `boost::lexical_cast` mistake, but a
|
||||
limitation of compiler options that you use.
