std::wbuffer_convert

From cppreference.com
Defined in header <locale>
template<class Codecvt,

         class Elem = wchar_t,
         class Tr = std::char_traits<Elem> >

class wbuffer_convert : public std::basic_streambuf<Elem, Tr>
(since C++11)

std::wbuffer_convert is a wrapper over stream buffer of type std::basic_streambuf<char> which gives it the appearance of std::basic_streambuf<Elem>. All I/O performed through std::wbuffer_convert undergoes character conversion as defined by the facet Codecvt. std::wbuffer_convert assumes ownership of the conversion facet, and cannot use a facet managed by a locale. The standard facets suitable for use with std::wbuffer_convert are std::codecvt_utf8 for UTF-8/UCS2 and UTF-8/UCS4 conversions and std::codecvt_utf8_utf16 for UTF-8/UTF-16 conversions.

This class template makes the implicit character conversion functionality of std::basic_filebuf available for any std::basic_streambuf.
