Distribution:
What is the recommended method of converting basic_string's of one 
parameterized type to another, and from another parameterized type itself.  
To clarify:

char *ntbs = "abc";
wchar_t *ntcws = L"abc";
string cs(ntbs);	// basic_string<char>(char *) - OK
wstring ws1(ntcws);	// basic_string<wchar_t>(wchar_t *) - OK
wstring ws2(ntbs);	// basic_string<wchar_t>(char *) - ???? 
wstring ws3(cs);	// basic_string<wchar_t>(basic_string<char>) - ???? 

Will the last two constructors work.  If so how?
If not, is the <cwchar> conversion function btowc from the C libray the answer?
