Convert const char* to wstring

Question

I\'m working on a native extension for a zinc based flash application and I need to convert a const char* to a wstring.

This is my code:

Answer 1

AFAIK this works only from C++11 and above:

#include 

// ...

std::wstring stringToWstring(const std::string& t_str)
{
    //setup converter
    typedef std::codecvt_utf8 convert_type;
    std::wstring_convert converter;

    //use converter (.to_bytes: wstr->str, .from_bytes: str->wstr)
    return converter.from_bytes(t_str);
}
