MTP is disagreed with the point 2.3 of the document. For us,

  typedef wchar_t TuniversalChar

is OK.

"The width of wchar_t is compiler-specific and can be as small as 8 bits. Consequently, programs that need to be portable across any C or C++ compiler should not use wchar_t for storing Unicode text." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wide_character [^])

TuniversalChar type should not be derived from wchart_t, because the size of individual characters of TTCN-3 universal charstrings is 4 bytes. Therefore TuniversalChar should be derived from 4 bytes instead:

either like in C mapping
Universal Char typedef unsigned char TciUCValue[4]
or like Elvior proposed:
typedef unsigned long TuniversalChar

Single characters are miscellaneous types for that purpose only. Still, single characters are treated differently in the mappings:
 
Java
    Tchar --> char
    Tuniversalchar --> int
 
C
    Tchar --> char
    Tuniversalchar --> TciUCValue
 
C++
    Tchar --> char
    Tuniversalchar --> wchar_t

The simplest seems to be to agree on integer types (32 bits are enough).

wchar_t shall be as wide as necessary to hold the largest character in the code sets of the locales that an implementation supports. If one platform doesn't support all characters of ISO/IEC 10646, wchar_t will not be able to handle all characters, but I think it is a platform (or c++ compiler) restriction, not a problem in C++ mapping.
wchar_t was introduced to represent wide char and I don't see any reason to not use this type.
For example, Tinteger can not work with "all integer" and it is not a problem

Elvior is strongly against using wchar_t. We support Ina's suggestion to use 32 bits integer types there.
more information about problems and sizes of wchar_t when using different compilers could be found at http://hristov.com/oblog/blog/post/2009/04/07/of-wchar_t/ [^]

This would mean

Java
    Tchar --> char
    Tuniversalchar --> int
 
C
    Tchar --> char
    Tuniversalchar --> long
 
C++
    Tchar --> char
    Tuniversalchar --> long

Please let the STF know if that is ok.

Implemented with the following changes:

- AddressType is not a class template but a class

- using operator== instead of equals

- removed the explicitly assigned constants in 10.5.2.14 TciTypeClass as that is still under discussion

- missing semicolons were already added

- change to the mapping of universal character (in chapter 10.5.1) still open as it is under discussion

Agreement was finally to go for

Java
    Tchar --> char
    Tuniversalchar --> int
 
C
    Tchar --> char
    Tuniversalchar --> wchar_t
 
C++
    Tchar --> char
    Tuniversalchar --> wchar_t
