Subject: Bug? No _TCHAR type is defined
To: cygwin <cygwin AT cygwin DOT com>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Type _TCHAR is not defined in cygwin tchar.h header,
only TCHAR type. According to Microsoft documentation
type _TCHAR should be used for creating Unicode/ANSII
portable applications.

MBCS Survival Guide at
http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/fareast/mbcssg.asp
 says:
"For ANSI conformance, the "official" type is _TCHAR.
In practice, either TCHAR or _TCHAR is acceptable."
