Re: again: sizeof(wchar_t)

Probably yes ...

The normal solution is to make configure compile run a program which

   the impression you were using a cross-compiler (which means the
   configure-time program which determines sizeof(wchar_t) must be
   downloaded to your target and its output somehow uploaded back,
   something which is not always feasible.
You are right, I'm working with cross-compiling environment.

Hmm, this is the variant. I didn't known that. Theoretically we can determine sizeof wchar_t without running on target board... I'll try to find these autoconf macros.

Thanks guys.
