std::wcsrtombs - cppreference.com

Converts a sequence of wide characters from the array whose first element is pointed to by *src to its narrow multibyte representation that begins in the conversion state described by *ps. If dst is not null, converted characters are stored in the successive elements of the char array pointed to by dst. No more than len bytes are written to the destination array.

Each character is converted as if by a call to std::wcrtomb. The conversion stops if:

[edit] Parameters dst - pointer to narrow character array where the multibyte characters will be stored src - pointer to pointer to the first element of a null-terminated wide string len - number of bytes available in the array pointed to by dst ps - pointer to the conversion state object [edit] Return value

On success, returns the number of bytes (including any shift sequences, but excluding the terminating '\0') written to the character array whose first element is pointed to by dst. If dst is a null pointer, returns the number of bytes that would have been written (again, excluding the terminating null character '\0').

On conversion error (if invalid wide character was encountered), returns static_cast<std::size_t>(-1), stores EILSEQ in errno, and leaves *ps in unspecified state.

[edit] Example
#include <clocale>
#include <cwchar>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
 
void print_wide(const wchar_t* wstr)
{
    std::mbstate_t state = std::mbstate_t();
    std::size_t len = 1 + std::wcsrtombs(nullptr, &wstr, 0, &state);
    std::vector<char> mbstr(len);
    std::wcsrtombs(&mbstr[0], &wstr, mbstr.size(), &state);
    std::cout << "multibyte string: " << &mbstr[0] << '\n'
              << "Length, including '\\0': " << mbstr.size() << '\n';
}
 
int main()
{
    std::setlocale(LC_ALL, "en_US.utf8");
    // UTF-8 narrow multibyte encoding
    const wchar_t* wstr = L"z\u00df\u6c34\U0001d10b"; // or L"zß水𝄋"
    print_wide(wstr);
}

Output:

multibyte string: zß水𝄋
Length, including '\0': 11
