Re: Regression tests, UNICODE vs ASCII

You can write something like the following:

const WCHAR zeroWidthNonJoiner          = 0x200C;
const WCHAR zeroWidthJoiner                  = 0x200D;
const WCHAR leftToRightMark                   = 0x200E;
const WCHAR rightToLeftMark                    = 0x200F;
const WCHAR leftToRightEmbedding      = 0x202A;
const WCHAR rightToLeftEmbedding       = 0x202B;
const WCHAR popDirectionalFormatting = 0x202C;
const WCHAR leftToRightOverride            = 0x202D;
const WCHAR rightToLeftOverride             = 0x202E;

( or
enum
{
    zeroWidthNonJoiner                                     = 0x200C,
    zeroWidthJoiner,
    leftToRightMark,
    rightToLeftMark,
    leftToRightEmbedding                                = 0x202A,
    rightToLeftEmbedding,
    popDirectionalFormatting,
    leftToRightOverride,
    rightToLeftOverride
};
)

const WCHAR test_string[] = {zeroWidthNonJoiner, zeroWidthJoiner, leftToRightMark, ... , rightToLeftOverride};

But what would these Unicode characters look like?
I.e. what would I write in my code:

const WCHAR test_string[]={'???','???','???'};
