SaxonCGlue - C/C++ UNICODE Interop - add doc somewhere
0%
Description
In order to be able to use Saxon/C from a Win32 / x64 UNICODE binary, one needs to explicitly undef / remove the UNICODE and _UNICODE macro when compiling.
(Otherwise the libsaxonhec.dll just won't load w/o error because the path get's scrambled up)
Without setting this, the user would get an error like
Unable to load C:\Program Files\Saxonica\SaxonHEC1.2.1\libsaxonhec.dll
Error: : No error
(just because the Path C:\Program Files\Saxonica\SaxonHEC1.2.1\libsaxonhec.dll would be wiedened to unicode, which is garbage in the SaxonCGlue.c / loadDll)

Note: SaxonCGlue.c should probably use LoadLibraryA instead of LoadLibrary, as it also explicitly uses const char*

Hi, Yes you are correct in your suggested fix.
I am marking this bug issue as a duplicate to the fix that has already been made in the issue #4707.
The work around is to apply this fix to your local copy of Saxon/C 1.2.1.
