My interface has to support FILE*, Streams, Strings, and
boost::filesystem::path. It seems to me that I can use _wfopen only on
Windows machines.

In essence I need to do the following?

#ifdef _Windows
FILE* f = _wfopen( L"test.jpg", L"rb");
#else
FILE* f = fopen( L"test.jpg", L"rb");
#endif // _Windows

Is that correct?

Thanks,
Christian
