#
The class codecvt<internT, externT, stateT> is for use when converting from one character encoding to another, such as from wide characters to multibyte characters or between wide character encodings such as UTF-32 and EUC.
2
#
The stateT argument selects the pair of character encodings being mapped between.

#
The specializations required in Table 86 ([locale.category]) convert the implementation-defined native character set.
codecvt<char, char, mbstate_t> implements a degenerate conversion; it does not convert at all.
codecvt<wchar_t, char, mbstate_t> converts between the native character sets for ordinary and wide characters.
Specializations on mbstate_t perform conversion between encodings known to the library implementer.
Other encodings can be converted by specializing on a program-defined stateT type.
Objects of type stateT can contain any state that is useful to communicate to or from the specialized do_in or do_out members.
