winapi-utf8
UTF-8 <-> UTF-16 conversion functions, mainly to be used with WinAPI.
Usage
Include it in your CMake project and link to the winapi_utf8
target.
Use the narrow()
and widen()
functions to convert to UTF-8 and UTF-16
respectively:
#include <winapi/utf8.hpp>
winapi::narrow(u"Привет"); // Returns the UTF-8 representation
winapi::widen(u8"Привет"); // Returns the UTF-16 representation
See the various convenience overloads of these function in the online documentation.
Development
Build using CMake. Depends on Boost.Test. The project is Windows-only, so building with either MSVC or MinGW-w64 is required.
There's a Makefile with useful shortcuts to build the project in the build/ directory (defaults to building with MinGW-w64):
make deps
make build
make test
