+  and "const wchar_t *", so this only presents a problem if the compiler cannot
+  apply the conversion. This can happen in 2 cases:
+
+  + There is an ambiguity because the function being called is overloaded to

+    explicitly select narrow or wide version of it.
+
+    Notice that such functions are normally not very common but unfortunately
+    Microsoft decided to extend their STL with standard-incompatible overloads
+    of some functions accepting "const wchar_t *" so you may need to replace
