A wide string Rust library for converting to and from wide strings, such as those often used in Windows API or other FFI libaries. Both u16 and u32 string types are provided, including support for UTF-16 and UTF-32, malformed encoding, C-style strings, etc.

Macros for converting string literals to UTF-16 and UTF-32 strings at compile time are also included.

Requires Rust 1.58 or greater. If you need support for older versions of Rust, use 0.x versions of this crate.
