Would I be able to somehow get wchar_tVar as a ByteVar and then get it as a KString?

[alexcouch]

Wait, according to this one error I got, it says that wchar_tVar is UShortVarOf<wchar /* = UShort */> so if I can get the wchar_tVar as the value of UShortVarOf and then get the KString that'd be good. Lemme try that

If it's really CPointer<wchar_tVar> then just .toKString() should work.

Oh I had tried that but the result I got was weird except I just realized why the result was weird. Thanks tho.

Mind letting us know?

[alexcouch]

All I get printed out is a box with a ?. I'm in a command prompt session. Isn't wchar 16 bits? So I should be able to do toKStringFromUtf16

[alexcouch]

Right?

[alexcouch]

But when I do that I get told it's unresolved.

toKStringFromUtf16 will be available in 1.3.30. Use toKString.

[alexcouch]

Ah okay. Well, I'm still struggling to print out a string cause it's just a box with a question mark

[alexcouch]

Nevermind. I realize what my problem was. The string was null and I was needing to iterate through an enumeration but I was iterating wrong. Once I fixed the iteration problem I was able to print everything correctly.
