wxcsconv::wxcsconv

wxcsconv(const wxchar* charset)

wxcsconv(wxfontencoding encoding)

constructor. you may specify either the name of the character set you want to convert from/to or an encoding constant. if the character set name (or the encoding) is not recognized, iso 8859-1 is used as fall back.

wxcsconv::~wxcsconv

~wxcsconv()

destructor frees any resources needed to perform the conversion.

wxcsconv::isok

bool isok() const

returns true if the charset (or the encoding) given at constructor is really available to use. returns false if iso 8859-1 will be used instead.

note this does not mean that a given string will be correctly converted. a malformed string may still make conversion functions return wxconv_failed.

this function is new since wxwidgets version 2.8.2

wxcsconv::mb2wc

size_t mb2wc(wchar_t* buf, const char* psz, size_t n) const

converts from the selected character set to unicode. returns length of string written to destination buffer.

wxcsconv::wc2mb

size_t wc2mb(char* buf, const wchar_t* psz, size_t n) const

converts from unicode to the selected character set. returns length of string written to destination buffer.
