explicit wstring_convert( Codecvt* pcvt = new Codecvt );	(1)
wstring_convert( Codecvt* pcvt, state_type state);	(2)
explicit wstring_convert( const byte_string& byte_err,                           const wide_string& wide_err = wide_string() );	(3)
wstring_convert(const std::wstring_convert&) = delete;	(4)	(since C++14)

1) Constructs the wstring_convert object with a specified conversion facet, using default-constructed values for the shift state and the error strings

2) Constructs the wstring_convert object with a specified conversion facet and specified shift state, using default-constructed values for the error strings

3) Constructs the wstring_convert object with specified error strings, using new Codecvt as the conversion facet and the default-constructed state_type as shift state.

4) The copy constructor is deleted, wstring_convert is not CopyConstructible

Parameters

pcvt	-	pointer to the conversion facet of type Codecvt (behavior is undefined if this pointer is null)
state	-	initial value of the conversion shift state
byte_err	-	narrow string to display on errors
wide_err	-	wide string to display on errors

Example

Run this code

#include <locale>
#include <utility>
#include <codecvt>
 
// utility wrapper to adapt locale-bound facets for wstring/wbuffer convert
template<class Facet>
struct deletable_facet : Facet
{
    using Facet::Facet; // inherit constructors
    ~deletable_facet() {}
};
 
int main()
{
    // UTF-16le / UCS4 conversion
    std::wstring_convert<
         std::codecvt_utf16<char32_t, 0x10ffff, std::little_endian>
    > u16to32;
 
    // UTF-8 / wide string conversion with custom messages
    std::wstring_convert<std::codecvt_utf8<wchar_t>> u8towide("Error!", L"Error!");
 
    // GB18030 / wide string conversion facet
    typedef deletable_facet<std::codecvt_byname<wchar_t, char, std::mbstate_t>> F;
    std::wstring_convert<F> gbtowide(new F("zh_CN.gb18030"));
}
