codecvt Class

A template class that describes an object that can serve as a locale facet. It is able to control conversions between a sequence of values used to encode characters within the program and a sequence of values used to encode characters outside the program.

For a list of all members of this type, see codecvt Members.

template<class CharType, class Byte, class StateType>
    class codecvt
        : public locale::facet, codecvt_base {
public:
    typedef CharType intern_type;
    typedef Byte extern_type;
    typedef StateType state_type;

    explicit codecvt (size_t _Refs = 0);

    result in (
        StateType& _State,
        const Byte *_First1, 
        const Byte *_Last1,
        const Byte *_Next1,

    virtual bool do_always_noconv () const throw();
    virtual int do_max_length () const throw();
    virtual int do_encoding () const throw();
    virtual int do_length (
        const StateType& _State,

};

Parameters

  • CharType
    The type used within a program to encode characters.

  • Byte
    A type used to encode characters outside a program.

  • StateType
    A type that can be used to represent intermediate states of a conversion between internal and external types of character representations.

Remarks

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet, to control conversions between a sequence of values of type CharType and a sequence of values of type Byte. The class StateType characterizes the transformation -- and an object of class StateType stores any necessary state information during a conversion.

The internal encoding uses a representation with a fixed number of bytes per character, usually either type char or type wchar_t.

As with any locale facet, the static object id has an initial stored value of zero. The first attempt to access its stored value stores a unique positive value inid.

The template versions of do_in and do_out always return codecvt_base::noconv.

The Standard C++ Library defines several explicit specializations:

template<>

codecvt<wchar_t, char, mbstate_t>

converts between wchar_t and char sequences.

template<>

codecvt<char16_t, char, mbstate_t>

converts between char16_t sequences encoded as UTF-16 and char sequences encoded as UTF-8.

template<>

codecvt<char32_t, char, mbstate_t>

converts between char32_t sequences encoded as UTF-32 (UCS-4) and char sequences encoded as UTF-8.
