How to solve the problem of accentuation in the terminal?

Question

I’m writing some strings on screen using the Opengl library and some of the words saved are accentuated words, example: república checa, where the exit ends up being: repblica checa has how to solve this problem without using external library? I would not like to use the #include <locale> for fear of incompatibility between windows or linux systems, some solution?

One remark, using the ASCII table is not a viable option.

Answer 1

Maybe std::wcout (wchar_t) solve your problem

#include <iostream>

int main() {
    std::wcout << L"república" << std::endl;
    return 0;
}

In windows to work like this reply on Soen it is necessary to start by cmd with the /u

Another thing you can try in the case of Windows is to use _setmode as described here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/pt-br/library/tw4k6df8.aspx (this worked without needing to apply the /u)

#include <fcntl.h>
#include <io.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void) {
    _setmode(_fileno(stdout), _O_U16TEXT);
    wprintf(L"república\n");
    return 0;
}

Upshot:

I tested it on Visualstudio and Mingw
