We were not able to reproduce your issue. It built successfully for us without any errors.
Please make sure that your GRC file's encoding is "UTF-8 with BOM".

Thanks. My grc file's encoding is "UTF-8 with BOM". But Often "illegal character" error occurs when there are many chinese characters in my grc file.
The error occurs in ***.grc.rc2.i file. How can I solve it ?

When you make a compilation error, put a space after the Chinese character.I compiled it in this way.
This problem occurs in Simple Chinese version of vs studio.

Thank you very much.
According to your method, this problem is solved.

Besides, I use Simple Chinese version of vs 2015.But I install the English Language pack ,the problem also occurs. I think the problem may be not caused by the vs language version ?

Hi,

How do you you call ResConv in the custom build step of your .grc file?

Thanks, Akos

Thanks, Akos

My method that call ResConv is：

cl /nologo /X /EP /P /I "..\..\Support\Inc" /I "..\..\Support\Modules\DGLib" /I ".\Src" /FI"..\..\Support\Inc\utf8header.h" /DDEBUG /DWINDOWS /Fi"$(OutDir)\RO\$(ProjectName).grc.rc2.i" "RINT\$(ProjectName).grc"
"..\..\Support\Tools\Win\ResConv.exe" -m r -D WINDOWS -T W -q utf8 1252 -i "$(OutDir)\RO\$(ProjectName).grc.rc2.i" -D _DEBUG -o "$(OutDir)\RO\$(ProjectName).grc.rc2"

Hi,

In the second line try replacing the '1252' with 'utf8', so that the ResConv compiler produces utf8 output.

Best, Akos
