I can’t seem to find a good built-in way to convert an NSString to wchar_t… any tips on how to do this? Anything Apple exposes on the NSString class is for c-strings (char*) or for unichars, but nothing for wchar*.

wchar_tis compiler specific. Assuming you wan the Win32wchar_t, then UTF16 little ending encoded will do it. For Unixwchar_tyou may need the NSUTF32 encoding family, with your platform of choice endianess.
