Dmitry Potapov:
No, it does not, if you have wchar_t that is only 16-bit wide, because characters outside of the BMP have integer values in Unicode greater than 65535...
UTF-16 allows you to reference all of Unicode (i.e up to U+10FFFF) using surrogate pairs. That means that not all characters can be represented as a single wchar_t, that is true. The problem with changing wchar_t is that it was defined to use 16-bit values at a time where Unicode was defined to use 16-bit code points (but they soon figured out that was not enough).
Anyway, this is getting off-topic.
