winapi-utf8

CI

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
