comparing a "wchar_t" to "char"

[ern]

So I want to compare the longer wchar_t type to a char type, using
wcsstr and wcsstr.

With a raw string, I can use 'L' like so:

wcsstr((uint16_t *)wchar_String, L"regularCharString")



BUT... say I have:

char * reg = "regularCharString"

How would I call wcsstr using the reg variable? (Tried typecasting,
but that doesn't work.)
