Re: Mac issue with drag/drop from a wxDataViewCtrl (possibly UTF16 encoded).

I'm not sure what I'm actually receiving. I can get the string that I'm 
expecting if I modify the incoming data and removing all occurrences of 
zero. Not ideal, but I can move forward with this.

    wxString strTemp;
    wxString::const_iterator i;
    for (i = strData.begin(); i !=  strData  .end(); ++i)
    {
        wxUniChar uni_ch = *i;

        if ( uni_ch != 0)
            strTemp +=uni_ch;
    }
     strData  = strTemp;
