UNICODE / MBCS Character Sets support in TBB library for Windows platforms

I'd like to understand why UNICODE / MBCS Character Sets are not supported in TBB library for Windows platforms?

Since these two Character Sets are not supported in TBB it creates some problems on projects which already
support UNICODE / MBCS Character Sets.

Best regards,
Sergey

Hi Vladimir,

Something goes wrong when C++ operators 'new' or 'delete' are redefined and UNICODE is used. Several libraries,
like STL, TBB and MFC, and my codes are defining its own versions of these C++ operators. I'll try to create a test-case
but it is not simple.

Best regards,

I'm using Unicode, MFC and TBB together with no problems. I imagine most apps using TBB on Windows also use Unicode.
