Hi gr and there,

Please take this one. Mixed codes needs more attention. Tested.

Hi gr and there,

What about like this?

And is my last email to Alex lost? I haven't received it.
Here it is:

Hello,

For my last git commit file attached, the following patch for "tccelf.c" is
not neccessary as the Unicode entries have been placed into seperate crt
source files.

So, the key is in "tccpe.c" to asign a proper entry. And, for optional, add
a gloabal flag "unicode_entry" as "TCC_TARGET_PE" for benching, in
"tccgen.c", "libtcc.c" and "tcc.h". It could not be neccesary.

We all must add the crt entry functions for Unicode. And I recommend put
them in new files, for smaller linked executable file.


From: Alexander De Sousa

It was only preliminary support for command line applications (no proper
tests), adding support for GUI applications would follow the same scheme.

Some thoughts on the matter:
- Separated startup code for Unicode entry points seem to be a must, <-- I
agree.
I couldn't find any way of doing it using the current crt1 and wincrt1.

- Third patch in a nutshell: check whether the wmain symbol is defined or
not and choose the Unicode start point if it is, the appropriate startup is added through add_elf_sym and friends. <--- There is "find_elf_sym" can be
used.

- I didn't realize at the time, but the pe_is_unicode() function I defined
could be replaced for a call to find_elf_sym. <--- I think so.

- Since Unicode builds are actually triggered by the _UNICODE macro being
defined, an Unicode build could probably be identified already when the
macro is detected to be defined. Maybe activating a flag at that point
instead of looking for wmain or wWinMain when adding the startup code. <--- What if "_UNICODE" is NOT defined but directly use "wmain" or "wWinMain"? :)

Committing the second patch is probably a good idea regardless of Unicode
support being added, I think it helps maintainability. <--- I just try to
keep the same style. ^_^

I'd agree with separate code, but not with separate sources. Rather
it should work like this:

    tcc -c crt1.c -o crt1.o
    tcc -c crt1.c -D_UNICODE -o wcrt1.o
    ar rcs libtcc1.a crt1.o wcrt1.o ...

After all that's the point of the _T/_t macros defined in tchar.h
and all the redirections in windows.h that depend on UNICODE.
