In my Windows 7 this code doesn't work:
std::wstring& getFileName() {
return file_name;
}
myMethod(){
wchar_t tmp = *getFileName().c_str() ;
std::wifstream infile( tmp ); // <<-- error: invalid conversion
from 'wchar_t' to 'const char*' [-fpermissive]
return infile.good( );
}
It seems to me that std::wifstream does not accept wchar_t as a value
type, but only const char*, contrary to to what is explained in
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/3b5w4311.aspx
Where did I go wrong? or, is this a bug?

That is describing the MS library, it's not the standard.

No, the standard says that basic_fstream always takes narrow character
strings to specify the filename, even if the stream itself uses wide
characters.

I see, VC has it's own way of doing things, thank you for advice. One
more question, where can I have reference to standard library?

http://en.cppreference.com is usually a good place to start.
