get length of `wchar_t*` in c++

问题

Please, how can I find out the length of a variable of type wchar_t* in c++?

code example below:

wchar_t* dimObjPrefix = L"retro_";

I would like to find out how many characters dimObjPrefix contains

回答1:

sizeof (wchar_t);

Edit:

I just noticed the string tag. If you want to know the size of a wchar_t string (wchar_t *), you want to use wcslen(3):

size_t wcslen (const wchar_t *ws);

回答2:

Assuming that you want to get the length of null terminated C style string, you have two options:

1. #include <cwchar> and use std::wcslen (dimObjPrefix);,
2. or #include <string> and use std::char_traits<wchar_t>::length (dimObjPrefix);.
