I'm currently trying to create a project in Visual C++ on MFC that uses .po
files to handle its translations. I have tried to integrate GnuWin32 Gettext
but have met with several obstacles.

1. My program can set it's language independent of the system language. I've
using setlocale(LC_ALL, "ja_JP") but the language doesn't change. I've treid
putting the mo files files in several places but to no success.

2. The gettext function returns a char*. If I pass in a unicode string such
as 'こんにちは世界', i will get '‚±‚ñ‚É‚¿‚͐¢ŠE'. I've
tried to use bind_textdomain_codeset("sample", "UTF-8") but it doesn't help.

I've tried searching the net and found a gettext ported to windows by Franco
and can get the translation using the gettext library provided by him but I
still encountered problem 2 as stated above.

PLease, is there someone who can point me to the right direction? Thanks.
