Is wchar_t just a typedef of unsigned short?
c, c++, short, unsigned, wchar-t
Solution
In short: in C may be in C++ no.
Widely. C defines wchar_t as typedef but in Unix it is generally 4 bytes (so generally not short) and in Windows 2 so it may be short.
Under C++ it is unique built-in type like `char` or `int`, so you can legally overload `void foo(short x)` and `void foo(wchar_t x)`
Problem
for example, does: ``` wchar_t x; ``` translate to: ``` unsigned short x; ```
