To change the encoding you have to embue the filestream with a locale
that includes a codecvt facet for the conversion. Unfortunately, MSVC
doesn't come with any except the text one (that does \n \r\n
conversions), and the not very useful default wstream one which just
converts wchars to chars by chopping off the second byte!
The best solution is to buy Dinkumware's CoreX library
(www.dinkumware.com); it includes support for a huge number of
encodings. If that's not an option, and UTF8 is all you really need,
then you can download a UTF8 conversion facet from here:

with docs here:
