Value Explanation
ok conversion was completed with no error
partial not all source characters were converted
error encountered an invalid character
noconv no conversion required, input and output types are the same

[edit] Notes

The value std::codecvt_base::partial is used to indicate that either the destination range is too short to receive the results of the conversion or the input is truncated in the middle of an otherwise valid multibyte character.
