Title

I want to convert a normal string to a wstring . For this, I am trying to use the Windows API function MultiByteToWideChar . But it does not work for me. Here is what I have done: string x = "This is c++ not java"; wstring Wstring; MultiByteToWideChar( CP_UTF8 , 0 , x.c_str() , x.size() , &Wstring , 0 ); The last line produces the compiler error: 'MultiByteToWideChar' : cannot convert parameter 5 from 'std::wstring *' to 'LPWSTR' How do I fix this error? Also, what should be the value of the argument cchWideChar ? Is 0 okay?
