Write UTF-8 file using standard c++

[Carmen Wai]

Hello:

I am new in UTF-8 issue and I would like to know how to read/write UTF-8 in c/c++ program. I am using Red Hat 7.3 and I am writing c++ program to convert wide characters (Chinese characters) to UTF-8 and output to a file. I have used the setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "zh_TW.utf-8") functioin, and then use the wcstombs() function for converting unicode to UTF-8. I would like to know whether I am right in the conversion as when I write the UTF-8 characters to a file, it is not readable!!!

Thanks a lot!

Carmen
