Whether to use "strlen()" or "wcslen()" ?

[kalinga_ray]

Hi All, I am confused between usage of "strlen()" and "wcslen()".
While writing Qt application on SymbianS60 what must be used?
If this is already discussed please give the link.

Thanks in advance.

The proper way is to use QString::size()

Hi Divanov, thanks for your quick reply.

Please look at the code snippet where I want to use it.
Given that i m trying to port an S60 application to Qt
so i would like to retain the logic in S60 manner and i 'll change only UI control in accordance with Qt. Anyway this is my understating, if any good approach would be there, please share the link.

#define DEFAULTFULLKEY _T("ABCDEFGHIGKLMNOP")
TCHAR g_DefaultKey[] = ATXDEFAULTFULLKEY;
TBuf<128> licenseKey;
icenseKey.Copy((TUint16*)g_DefaultKey, wcslen(g_DefaultKey));

QString licenseKey("ABCDEFGHIGKLMNOP");

There is a link about conversion between QString and Symbian descriptors

Thanks for your quick reply.
So you mean every TBuf has to be replaced with QString.
But as I said earlier engine part of the application i would like to retain and only UI part has to be changed. So here engine is Platform dependent (Symbian specific).So there is no good point in changing all Tbuf to QString.I understand changing these will make the application platform independent but at this point I am not looking at making the application platform independent.

It's a curious "feechure" of the Nokia site that you often have to try a link 2-3 times before you get to the right location.
