Re: std::wstring to glib::ustring conversion

[Milosz Derezynski <internalerror gmail com>]

It's not really about the data type used, but about the encoding of the original string.

For one, there is http://www.unicode.org/Public/PROGRAMS/CVTUTF/, which is of course not part of glib, but is probably a good way to do it.

Then, you can use http://gtkmm.org/docs/glibmm-2.4/docs/reference/html/group__CharsetConv.html#g58f7e4556c436a96c64b186bbc8f7f4c , for converting between UTF-16 (which is what I assume your wstrings are), and UTF-8.

Then finally you can place the result into a Glib::ustring.

Hope this helps,

M.

Greetings,

Recently I plan to port my app from Windows to linux using Gtkmm library.  I found glib::ustring is recommended to use, but my app works with std::wstring.  However, there seems no sign of documentations about the conversion from std::wstring to glib::string in the gtkmm library.  I got stuck here.  Could some one help me out of the question?  Thanks in advance :)

Regards

CHEN Kai
