This is ok but i have to convert string into boost string. if i use the
method as suggested.

string s = "hello";
std::basic_string<wchar_t> ts(s.begin(), s.end());
char_string y = ts;

I am getting the following error.

run.cpp: In function ‘int main()’:
run.cpp:63: error: conversion from ‘std::basic_string<wchar_t,
std::char_traits<wchar_t>, std::allocator<wchar_t> >’ to non-scalar type
‘boost::interprocess_container::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>,
boost::interprocess:allocator<char,
boost::interprocess::segment_manager<char,
:boost::interprocess::rbtree_best_fit<boost::interprocess::mutex_family,
boost::interprocess::offset_ptr<void>, 0u>, boost::interprocess::iset_index>

basic_string is not boost, it's plain STL.

from <string>:

typedef basic_string<char> string;

To assign two different basic_strings:

        std::string s = "foobar";
        std::basic_string<wchar_t> ws(s.begin(), s.end());
