Hi list,

as I'm new to C++ I don't know how to properly create a QString 
containing non-latin characters which are escaped in a latin-1 
encoded cpp-file.

In Java I would write this in order to create a string with 2 
(japanese) characters:
String s = "\u8f9e\u66f8";

I got a really ugly version after hours of trying and googling (I 
told you, I'm a C++ rookie...) of that piece of code in C++/Qt, 
as I only managed to create a QChar with a \uXXXX character, but 
not a QString:

QString s = QString(QChar(L'\u8f9e')).append(QChar(L'\u66f8'));

And yes, I know about i18n(..) etc., but this is a string which 
will _never_ be l10n-ized and I won't outsource 2 little 
characters.

Thanks in advance,
Paul
