Win32 API multilanguage conversion WCHAR,TCHAR problem?

I am using recv() func for "GET"ting a web content on port80. And try printing the received content on an Edit Controlon screen, by using ::SendMessage(...WM_SETTEXT...)
Due to the limitations of pointer types to be compliant to the func presets, I have to make some conversion.
Everything works fine, with latin letters but I can not anyhow manage to output the foreign language characters properly. Let's say russian.

How can I do this?Do I need to somehow change the edit control's character set, so as to interpret the passed string buffer as I wish? If so, how?I'll appreciate your help.

Here I enclose a short abstract from my code (as u might see I enforce UNICODE compilation)

Code:

---

#define _UNICODE
#define UNICODE
#define RECBUFF 100000
.
.
.
.
.
.

bool KNetCon::WriteToScr(HWND hEditCtl)
{
  // ----clear screen in edit
        ::SendMessage(hEditCtl,WM_SETTEXT,0,(LPARAM)L"");
        DWORD writtenBytes;
        int bytes_sent;
        int bytes_received=SOCKET_ERROR;
        char *sendbuf="GET / HTTP/1.0 \r\n\r\n";

        bytes_sent=send(m_socket,sendbuf,strlen(sendbuf),0);

        int i=0;
        TCHAR* temp=wrecbuf; //*** NOTE: wrecbuf is the main buffer in (this)object.
                                        // and declared in the class interface as ; TCHAR wrecbuf[RECBUFF]


        while(1)
        {
                i++;
                bytes_received=recv(m_socket,recbuf,RECBUFF,0);
                                                  //***recbuf declared in class interface as:
                                                  //  char recbuf[RECBUFF] in
               
                if(bytes_received==0 || bytes_received==WSAECONNRESET || bytes_received < 0)
                {
                        *temp=L'\0';// **I am not sure if this is necessary or not,but
                                        // the intention is form a null-terminating string.

                        break;
                }
                else
                {
#ifdef _UNICODE
                        mbstowcs(temp,recbuf,bytes_received); // I think this it the vital part..right???
                                                                              // maybe smthg wrong here?
#endif
                        temp+=bytes_received;

                }
        }

        ::SendMessage(hEditCtl,WM_SETTEXT,0,(LPARAM)(LPVOID)&wrecbuf);
        InvalidateRect(hEditCtl,NULL,TRUE);
        UpdateWindow(hEditCtl);

        return true;
}

HTTP does not deal in TCHAR's - just octects, or char's.

The char string that you recv will have a particular encoding: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charact...odings_in_HTML

You'll then need to convert that into a Windows wchar_t string, typically via MultiByteToWideChar() where the codepage parameter corresponds to the HTTP/HTML encoding that was recv'd.
