This library can be used in Windows if i use mingw or cygwin. Still, I don't want to use UTF-8 in Windows.
I'll specifically answer to this once again. I assume that following had mislead you in documentations.
winapi backend [snip]
* You need GCC-4.x to use it. * Only UTF-8 encoding is supported.
Meaning you can't use GCC-3.4 but 4.x series as the 3.x does not support wide characters. Sorry if it mislead you. MSVC is first class citizen and actually much better supported then GCC...
