This is exactly the reason you can't implement utf-8 - utf-16 codepage conversion using codecvt facet.

And yet MSVC10 comes with a (presumably standard-compliant) codecvt that does exactly that: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee292142.aspx In fact, it comes with codecvts that convert to and from UCS-4, UCS-2, UTF-16 and UTF-8, UTF-16LE, UTF-16BE: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee336489.aspx Are these possible only because of functionality added in C++0x?
