In my programming instead of "multibytetowide" conversion preparing for a
windows API inside #ifdef UNICODE blocks, I just call the ANSI mode of the
function with ascii c-strings
passed in, and let microsoft perform the A->W conversions. When does this
simpler approach break?

ROTFL! I didn't know that one.
As for std::toupper, IIRC there's an override which takes a locale
argument. But I'm not sure mingw-w64 support locales other than C in that
case. Last time I checked libstdc++ didn't
#include
#include
std::string str = "Hello World";
std::transform(str.begin(), str.end(), str.begin(), std::toupper);

I would like to write a function to capitalize letters, say...
std::wstring toUpper(const std::wstring wstr){
for ( auto it = wstr.begin(); it != wstr.end(); ++it){
global_wapstr.append(std::towupper(&it));
}
}
This doesn’t work, but doesn’t the standard already have something like
std::
Grasp this sentence: implementation dependent.
wchar_t is wide char, it's made to imply that each representable character
can take more than one byte to encode a character. It was created before
utf8 got mainstream. And, as there were competing encodings (UCS-2 fixed

Whether it's UTF-16 or UCS-2 depends on the implementation of the library
that handles wstring.

I have been reading that wchat_t, and therefore wstring, is neither UTF-8 nor a
UTF-16 character set. So, what is wstring good for then?

Consider this: windows is the alien os. Nowadays most operating systems has
a unix core. Even apple went in that direction. Android, while having an
abstract API, is also unix underneath.
