I wrote a text_encoding library provide generic container and iterator 
with charset infomation. I have used it for some weeks.Use this library, 
you may write code like:

// convert UCS-2 to UTF-8
utf8_string us = L"some wide character: \xABCD\x1234";
cout << us << endl;
string s;
// move bytes to another std::string.
us.swap(s);

Or, use iterators:

wstring ws = L"some wide character: \xABCD\x1234";
copy (
  make_encoded_range<charset::utf8>(ws).begin(),
  make_encoded_range<charset::utf8>(ws).end(),
  ostreambuf_iterator<char>(std::cout)
);

The version I upload to vault already have a little of tests, examples, 
and documents.
