How to get decimal value of a unicode character in c++

Question

For one of my opensource project, i need to compute decimal equivalent of given unicode character.

For example if tamil character L'அ' given, output should be 2949 .

I am using c++ in Qt environment. I googled and couldnot find a solution for this. Pls help if you know a solution for this.

Answer 1

Use the unicode() method of the QChar object (which you can get e.g. with the at method of a QString, if a QString is what you have to start with).

Answer 2

cout << (int)c 

that's it

Answer 3

void print_decimal(wchar_t character)
{
  std::cout << int(character);
}
