// don't let the fact that the existing classes implement MB2WC/WC2MB() instead
// confuse you.
//
// You also have to implement Clone() to allow copying the conversions
// polymorphically.
//
// And you might need to override GetMBNulLen() as well.

    // characters, not bytes) of the converted string including any trailing
    // L'\0' or (possibly multiple) '\0'(s). If the conversion fails or if
    // there is not enough space for everything, including the trailing NUL
    // character(s), in the output buffer, wxCONV_FAILED is returned.
