Counting unicode characters in an array?

[Ganado]

jonnin -- I don't think he needs to be using wide strings. That's just for Windows API compatibility stuff.

bydrachen -- The character counts are wrong because you're still using strlen instead of the implementation discussed in the Stack Overflow page I previously linked.

L is a 'prefix' -- there are several of these -- it converts a string literal to widechar. But as said I dunno if you need to be doing these things.

#include <iostream>

// // https://stackoverflow.com/a/3586973
int utf8_strlen(const char* str)
{
	int count = 0;
	while (*str != 0)
	{
		if ((*str & 0xc0) != 0x80)
			++count;
		++str;
	}
	
	return count;
}

int main()
{
    char my_string [][60] 
    {
        {"ù322dA@@kyUMGyy3t5u7UMEy~{yyEC€}{y6(y6(y6(y4ty67"},  
        {"6(y6(y6(y6(y6(y6(y6(3y6(3y6(3yEk€}|y1#+y15dff67fgg3ddd)=?"},  
        {"#+y1#+y1#+y1#+y1#+y1#+y1#+y1#+y1#+y1#+y1#&&%(JK33Y)("},
        {"+yrmjyJIHkGFFk|zxy.y-y-njfy5'y0\"y,y+37y+33cuy[}s43"},
        {"7y+37y+37yy+37y+y+ykgc#+y1#+y6(6(3yE37y-65/gt46&"}
    };
	
	for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
	{
		std::cout << "utf8_strlen = " << utf8_strlen(my_string[i]) << '\n';
	}
}

Thanks for your help. I learned a lot.
