std::codecvt_utf16(3) C++ Standard Libary std::codecvt_utf16(3) NAME std::codecvt_utf16 - std::codecvt_utf16 Synopsis Defined in header <codecvt> template< class Elem, unsigned long Maxcode = 0x10ffff, (since C++11) std::codecvt_mode Mode = (std::codecvt_mode)0 > (dep- recated in C++17) class codecvt_utf16 : public std::codecvt<Elem, char, std::mbstate_t>; std::codecvt_utf16 is a std::codecvt facet which encapsulates con- version between a UTF-16 encoded byte string and UCS2 or UTF-32 character string (de- pending on the type of Elem). This codecvt facet can be used to read and write UTF-16 files in binary mode. Template Parameters Elem - either char16_t, char32_t, or wchar_t Maxcode - the largest value of Elem that this facet will read or write without error Mode - a constant of type std::codecvt_mode Member functions constructor constructs a new codecvt_utf16 facet (public member function) destructor destroys a codecvt_utf16 facet (public member function) std::codecvt_utf16::codecvt_utf16 explicit codecvt_utf16( std::size_t refs = 0 ); Constructs a new std::codecvt_utf16 facet, passes the initial refer- ence counter refs to the base class. Parameters refs - the number of references that link to the facet std::codecvt_utf16::~codecvt_utf16 ~codecvt_utf16(); Destroys the facet. Unlike the locale-managed facets, this facet's destructor is public.

The term "UCS2" was deprecated and removed from the Unicode standard. Example The following example demonstrates decoding of UTF-16le file on a system with 32-bit wchar_t. On a system with 16-bit wchar_t, decoding of the third character will fail because std::codecvt_utf16<char16_t> produces UCS2, not UTF-16. // Run this code #include <fstream> #include <iostream> #include <string> #include <locale> #include <codecvt> void prepare_file() { // UTF-16le data (if host system is little-endian) char16_t utf16le[4] ={0x007a, // latin small letter 'z' U+007a 0x6c34, // CJK ideograph "water" U+6c34 0xd834, 0xdd0b}; // musical sign segno U+1d10b // store in a file std::ofstream fout("text.txt"); fout.write( reinterpret_cast<char*>(utf16le), sizeof utf16le); } int main() { prepare_file(); // open as a byte stream std::wifstream fin("text.txt", std::ios::binary); // apply facet fin.imbue(std::locale(fin.getloc(), new std::codecvt_utf16<wchar_t, 0x10ffff, std::little_en- dian>)); for (wchar_t c; fin.get(c); ) std::cout << std::showbase << std::hex << c << '\n'; } Output: 0x7a 0x6c34 0x1d10b See also Character locale-defined conversions multibyte UTF-8 UTF-16 (UTF-8, GB18030) mbrtoc16 / codecvt<char16_t, char, mb- state_t> UTF-16 c16rtomb(with C11's codecvt_utf8_utf16<char16_t> N/A DR488) codecvt_utf8_utf16<char32_t> codecvt_utf8_utf16<wchar_t> c16rtomb(without codecvt_utf8<char16_t> codecvt_utf16<char16_t> UCS2 C11's DR488) codecvt_utf8<wchar_t>(Windows) codecvt_utf16<wchar_t>(Windows) codecvt<char32_t, char, mb- state_t> codecvt_utf16<char32_t> UTF-32 mbrtoc32 / c32rtomb codecvt_utf8<char32_t> codecvt_utf16<wchar_t>(non-Windows) codecvt_utf8<wchar_t>(non-Win- dows) mbsrtowcs / system wide: wcsrtombs UTF-32(non-Windows) use_facet<codecvt No No UCS2(Windows) <wchar_t, char, mbstate_t>>(locale) converts between character encodings, including UTF-8, codecvt UTF-16, UTF-32 (class template) codecvt_mode tags to alter behavior of the standard codecvt facets (C++11)(deprecated in C++17) (enum) codecvt_utf8 converts between UTF-8 and UCS2/UCS4 (C++11)(deprecated in C++17) (class template) codecvt_utf8_utf16 converts between UTF-8 and UTF-16 (C++11)(deprecated in C++17) (class template) http://cppreference.com 2022.07.31 std::codecvt_utf16(3)
