This header is part of the Localization library.

Classes
codecvt_utf8 (C++11)(deprecated in C++17)(removed in C++26)	converts between UTF-8 and UCS-2/UCS-4 (class template)
codecvt_utf16 (C++11)(deprecated in C++17)(removed in C++26)	converts between UTF-16 and UCS-2/UCS-4 (class template)
codecvt_utf8_utf16 (C++11)(deprecated in C++17)(removed in C++26)	converts between UTF-8 and UTF-16 (class template)
codecvt_mode (C++11)(deprecated in C++17)(removed in C++26)	tags to alter behavior of the standard codecvt facets (enum)

Notes

<codecvt> is deprecated in C++17 and removed in C++26.
