how to convert utf-8 to ASCII in c++?
First note that ASCII is a 7-bit format. There are 8-bit encodings, if you are after one of these (such as ISO 8859-1) you’ll need to be more specific.
To convert an ASCII string to UTF-8, do nothing: they are the same. So if your UTF-8 string is composed only of ASCII characters, then it is already an ASCII string, and no conversion is necessary.
If the UTF-8 string contains non-ASCII characters (anything with accents or non-Latin characters), there is no way to convert it to ASCII. (You may be able to convert it to one of the ISO encodings perhaps.)
There are ways to strip the accents from Latin characters to get at least some resemblance in ASCII. Alternatively if you just want to delete the non-ASCII characters, simply delete all bytes with values >= 128 from the utf-8 string.
