// codecvt::max_length example
#include <iostream>
#include <locale>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
locale loc;
cout << "max_length for codecvt<char,char,mbstate_t>: ";
cout << use_facet<codecvt<char,char,mbstate_t> >(loc).max_length();
cout << endl;
cout << "max_length for codecvt<wchar_t,char,mbstate_t>: ";
cout << use_facet<codecvt<wchar_t,char,mbstate_t> >(loc).max_length();
cout << endl;
return 0;
}

Output:
max_length for codecvt<char,char,mbstate_t>: 1
max_length for codecvt<wchar_t,char,mbstate_t>: 5
