There are two very simple ways to do it: // // 1. Open file with Notepad and save it from there. It would convert // it to file with BOM. // 2. In Visual Studio go File->Advances Save Options... and select // Unicode (UTF-8 with signature) Codepage 65001 // // Note: once converted to UTF-8 with BOM, this source code would not // compile with other compilers, because no-one uses BOM with UTF-8 today // because it is absolutely meaningless in context of UTF-8. // // ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! // #include #include #include #include int main() { using namespace boost::locale; // Create system default locale generator gen; std::locale loc = gen(""); std::locale::global(loc); std::wcout.imbue(loc); // This is needed to prevent the C stdio library from // converting strings to narrow on some platforms std::ios_base::sync_with_stdio(false); std::wcout << L"Correct case conversion can't be done by simple, character by character conversion\n"; std::wcout << L"because case conversion is context sensitive and not 1-to-1 conversion\n"; std::wcout << L"For example:\n"; std::wcout << L" German grüßen correctly converted to " << to_upper(L"grüßen") << L", instead of incorrect " << boost::to_upper_copy(std::wstring(L"grüßen")) << std::endl; std::wcout << L" where ß is replaced with SS\n"; std::wcout << L" Greek ὈΔΥΣΣΕΎΣ is correctly converted to " << to_lower(L"ὈΔΥΣΣΕΎΣ") << L", instead of incorrect " << boost::to_lower_copy(std::wstring(L"ὈΔΥΣΣΕΎΣ")) << std::endl; std::wcout << L" where Σ is converted to σ or to ς, according to position in the word\n"; std::wcout << L"Such type of conversion just can't be done using std::toupper that work on character base, also " L"std::toupper is \n"; std::wcout << L"not fully applicable when working with variable character length like in UTF-8 or UTF-16 limiting " L"the correct \n"; std::wcout << L"behavoir to BMP or ASCII only\n"; } // boostinspect:noascii
