Convenient easy-to-use and efficient helper functions to convert between Unicode UTF-16 CString and UTF-8 std::string
This project contains a header-only C++ file that implements a couple of functions
to simply, efficiently, and conveniently convert Unicode text between UTF-16 CString
and UTF-8 std::string, using direct Win32 API calls.
CString is used to store UTF-16-encoded text.
std::string is used to store UTF-8-encoded text.
The exported functions are:
// Convert from UTF-16 to UTF-8
std::string ToUtf8(CString const& utf16)
// Convert from UTF-8 to UTF-16
CString ToUtf16(std::string const& utf8)These functions live under the UnicodeConvAtlStd namespace.
This code compiles cleanly at warning level 4 (/W4)
on both 32-bit and 64-bit builds.
Just #include "UnicodeConvAtlStd.hpp" in your projects,
and enjoy!
