Convert UTF-16 to UTF-8 under Windows and Linux, in C

Question

I was wondering if there is a recommended \'cross\' Windows and Linux method for the purpose of converting strings from UTF-16LE to UTF-8? or one should use different method

Answer 1

If you don't want to use ICU,

1. Windows: WideCharToMultiByte
2. Linux: iconv (Glibc)
