GCCDefs.hpp

[Jens Schilling <sc...@web.de>]

Hi,

some definitions in the file "GCCDefs.hpp" are wrong or unusable. Someone 
means the gcc-compiler does not understand L"", thats not right. And why do 
you use unsigned short instead of wchar_t? The L"" statement is of type 
wchar_t. It is easier use unicode strings with L"" instead of defining arrays 
of XMLCh.

Hey Jens,

I didn't write it, so I'm only guessing. Two reasons:

* this has to work with *all* compilers, so they needed to use a
  common type, and wchar_t isn't supported everywhere????

* the person who wrote the header didn't know about L""????

Want to provide a working patch?

jas.
