Class Poco::UnicodeConverter

Package: Text
Header: Poco/UnicodeConverter.h

Description

A convenience class that converts strings from UTF-8 encoded std::strings to UTF-16 encoded std::wstrings and vice-versa.

This class is mainly used for working with the Unicode Windows APIs and probably won't be of much use anywhere else.
