    @class wxMBConv

    This class is the base class of a hierarchy of classes capable of
    converting text strings between multibyte (SBCS or DBCS) encodings and
    Unicode.

    This is an abstract base class which defines the operations implemented by
    all different conversion classes. The derived classes don't add any new
    operations of their own (except, possibly, some non-default constructors)
    and so you should simply use this class ToWChar() and FromWChar() (or
    cMB2WC() and cWC2MB()) methods with the objects of the derived class.

    In the documentation for this and related classes please notice that
    length of the string refers to the number of characters in the string
    not counting the terminating @c NUL, if any. While the size of the string
    is the total number of bytes in the string, including any trailing @c NUL.
    Thus, length of wide character string @c L"foo" is 3 while its size can
    be either 8 or 16 depending on whether @c wchar_t is 2 bytes (as
    under Windows) or 4 (Unix).

    /**
        Convert multibyte string to a wide character one.

        This is the most general function for converting a multibyte string to
        a wide string, cMB2WC() may be often more convenient, however this
        function is the most efficient one as it allows to avoid any
        unnecessary copying.

        The main case is when @a dst is not @NULL and @a srcLen is not
        @c wxNO_LEN (which is defined as @c (size_t)-1): then the function
        converts exactly @a srcLen bytes starting at @a src into wide string
        which it output to @e dst. If the length of the resulting wide
        string is greater than @e dstLen, an error is returned. Note that if
        @a srcLen bytes don't include @c NUL characters, the resulting wide
        string is not @c NUL-terminated neither.

        If @a srcLen is @c wxNO_LEN, the function supposes that the string is
        properly (i.e. as necessary for the encoding handled by this
        conversion) @c NUL-terminated and converts the entire string, including
        any trailing @c NUL bytes. In this case the wide string is also @c
        NUL-terminated.

        Finally, if @a dst is @NULL, the function returns the length of the
        needed buffer.

        Example of use of this function:
        @code
        size_t dstLen = conv.ToWChar(NULL, 0, src);
        if ( dstLen == wxCONV_FAILED )
            ... handle error ...
        wchar_t *dst = new wchar_t[dstLen];
        if ( conv.ToWChar(dst, dstLen, src) == wxCONV_FAILED )
            ... handle error ...
        @endcode

        Notice that when passing the explicit source length the output will
        @e not be @c NUL terminated if you pass @c strlen(str) as parameter.
        Either leave @a srcLen as default @c wxNO_LEN or add one to @c strlen
        result if you want the output to be @c NUL terminated.

        @param dst
            Pointer to output buffer of the size of at least @a dstLen or @NULL.
        @param dstLen
            Maximal number of characters to be written to the output buffer if
            @a dst is non-@NULL, unused otherwise.
        @param src
            Point to the source string, must not be @NULL.
        @param srcLen
            The number of characters of the source string to convert or
            @c wxNO_LEN (default parameter) to convert everything up to and
            including the terminating @c NUL character(s).

        @return
            The number of character written (or which would have been written
            if it were non-@NULL) to @a dst or @c wxCONV_FAILED on error.

        case.

        Converts from a string @a in in multibyte encoding to Unicode putting up to
        @a outLen characters into the buffer @e out.

        If @a out is @NULL, only the length of the string which would result
        from the conversion is calculated and returned. Note that this is the
        length and not size, i.e. the returned value does not include the
        trailing @c NUL. But when the function is called with a non-@NULL @a
        out buffer, the @a outLen parameter should be one more to allow to
        properly @c NUL-terminate the string.

        So to properly use this function you need to write:
        @code
            size_t lenConv = conv.MB2WC(NULL, in, 0);
            if ( lenConv == wxCONV_FAILED )
                ... handle error ...
            // allocate 1 more character for the trailing NUL and also pass
            // the size of the buffer to the function now
            wchar_t *out = new wchar_t[lenConv + 1];
            if ( conv.MB2WC(out, in, lenConv + 1) == wxCONV_FAILED )
                ... handle error ...
        @endcode
        For this and other reasons, ToWChar() is strongly recommended as a
        replacement.

        @param out
            The output buffer, may be @NULL if the caller is only
            interested in the length of the resulting string
        @param in
            The NUL-terminated input string, cannot be @NULL
        @param outLen
            The length of the output buffer but including
