std::codecvt_byname is astd::codecvt facet which encapsulates multibyte/wide character conversion rules of a locale specified at its construction.
Contents |
The standard library is guaranteed to provide the following specializations:
Defined in header <locale> | |
| std::codecvt_byname<char,char,std::mbstate_t> | identity conversion |
| std::codecvt_byname<char16_t,char,std::mbstate_t> (since C++11)(deprecated in C++20) | conversion between UTF-16 and UTF-8 |
| std::codecvt_byname<char16_t, char8_t,std::mbstate_t> (since C++20) | conversion between UTF-16 and UTF-8 |
| std::codecvt_byname<char32_t,char,std::mbstate_t> (since C++11)(deprecated in C++20) | conversion between UTF-32 and UTF-8 |
| std::codecvt_byname<char32_t, char8_t,std::mbstate_t> (since C++20) | conversion between UTF-32 and UTF-8 |
| std::codecvt_byname<wchar_t,char,std::mbstate_t> | locale-specific conversion between wide string and narrow character sets |

explicit codecvt_byname(constchar* name,std::size_t refs=0); | ||
explicit codecvt_byname(conststd::string& name,std::size_t refs=0); | (since C++11) | |
Constructs a newstd::codecvt_byname facet for a locale withname.
refs is used for resource management: ifrefs==0, the implementation destroys the facet, when the laststd::locale object holding it is destroyed. Otherwise, the object is not destroyed.
| name | - | the name of the locale |
| refs | - | the number of references that link to the facet |
protected: ~codecvt_byname(); | ||
Destroys the facet.

This example demonstrates reading a GB18030-encoded file using the codecvt facet from a GB18030-aware locale.
#include <fstream>#include <iostream>#include <locale>#include <string> int main(){// GB18030 narrow multibyte encodingstd::ofstream("text.txt")<<"\x7a"// letter 'z', U+007a"\x81\x30\x89\x38"// letter 'ß', U+00df"\xcb\xae"// CJK ideogram '水' (water), U+6c34"\x94\x32\xbc\x35";// musical sign '𝄋' (segno), U+1d10b std::wifstream fin("text.txt"); fin.imbue(std::locale(fin.getloc(), new std::codecvt_byname<wchar_t,char,std::mbstate_t>("zh_CN.gb18030"))); for(wchar_t c; fin.get(c);)std::cout<<std::hex<<std::showbase<<static_cast<unsigned>(c)<<'\n';}
Possible output:
