how to compile the pcsc_scan.exe with UNICODE on Windows platform about pcsc-tools HOT 5 CLOSED

Windows is not supported.
I let you find the solution yourself.

A Pull Request is welcome if you find a nice solution with no side effect on non-Windows systems.

You can use something like:

CPPFLAGS=-DUNICODE ./configure

I have not tested on a Windows system but on my GNU/Linux system I see the -DUNICODE argument passed to the compiler:

$ make V=1
make  all-am
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/rousseau/Documents/sc/pcsc-tools'
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.   -DUNICODE -I/usr/include/PCSC -pthread   -MT pcsc_scan-pcsc_scan.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/pcsc_scan-pcsc_scan.Tpo -c -o pcsc_scan-pcsc_scan.o `test -f 'pcsc_scan.c' || echo './'`pcsc_scan.c
mv -f .deps/pcsc_scan-pcsc_scan.Tpo .deps/pcsc_scan-pcsc_scan.Po
gcc -I/usr/include/PCSC -pthread     -o pcsc_scan pcsc_scan-pcsc_scan.o -lpcsclite  
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/rousseau/Documents/sc/pcsc-tools'

The compilation using MSYS2 works but with warnings because when UNICODE is defined the characters are not char any more.
Execution then does not work as expected at all.

Why do you want to use Unicode?
