看看优秀的c++17 cppp -unicodelib (GitHub)。它是单文件且只包含头文件。

#include <exception>
#include <iostream>
#include <codecvt>

// cpp-unicodelib, downloaded from GitHub
#include "unicodelib.h"
#include "unicodelib_encodings.h"

using namespace std;
using namespace unicode;

// converter that allows displaying a Unicode32 string
wstring_convert<codecvt_utf8<char32_t>, char32_t> converter;

std::u32string  in = U"Je suis là!";
cout << converter.to_bytes(in) << endl;

std::u32string  lc = to_lowercase(in);
cout << converter.to_bytes(lc) << endl;

输出

Je suis là!
je suis là!

使用此代码在c++中更改字符串的大小写。

#include<bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

int main(){
  string a = "sssAAAAAAaaaaDas";
  transform(a.begin(),a.end(),a.begin(),::tolower);
  cout<<a;
}

Boost为此提供了一个字符串算法:

#include <boost/algorithm/string.hpp>

std::string str = "HELLO, WORLD!";
boost::algorithm::to_lower(str); // modifies str

或者，对于非原位:

#include <boost/algorithm/string.hpp>

const std::string str = "HELLO, WORLD!";
const std::string lower_str = boost::algorithm::to_lower_copy(str);

这是Stefan Mai的回应的后续:如果你想把转换的结果放在另一个字符串中，你需要在调用std::transform之前预先分配它的存储空间。由于STL将转换后的字符存储在目标迭代器中(在每次循环迭代时递增)，因此目标字符串不会自动调整大小，并且可能会占用内存。

#include <string>
#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>

int main (int argc, char* argv[])
{
  std::string sourceString = "Abc";
  std::string destinationString;

  // Allocate the destination space
  destinationString.resize(sourceString.size());

  // Convert the source string to lower case
  // storing the result in destination string
  std::transform(sourceString.begin(),
                 sourceString.end(),
                 destinationString.begin(),
                 ::tolower);

  // Output the result of the conversion
  std::cout << sourceString
            << " -> "
            << destinationString
            << std::endl;
}

由于没有一个答案提到即将到来的Ranges库，它从c++ 20开始就在标准库中可用，目前在GitHub上单独可用为range-v3，我想添加一种使用它执行转换的方法。

就地修改字符串:

str |= action::transform([](unsigned char c){ return std::tolower(c); });

生成一个新的字符串:

auto new_string = original_string
    | view::transform([](unsigned char c){ return std::tolower(c); });

(不要忘记#include <cctype>和所需的Ranges头。)

注意:使用unsigned char作为lambda的参数是受cppreference的启发，它声明:

Like all other functions from <cctype>, the behavior of std::tolower is undefined if the argument's value is neither representable as unsigned char nor equal to EOF. To use these functions safely with plain chars (or signed chars), the argument should first be converted to unsigned char: char my_tolower(char ch) { return static_cast<char>(std::tolower(static_cast<unsigned char>(ch))); } Similarly, they should not be directly used with standard algorithms when the iterator's value type is char or signed char. Instead, convert the value to unsigned char first: std::string str_tolower(std::string s) { std::transform(s.begin(), s.end(), s.begin(), // static_cast<int(*)(int)>(std::tolower) // wrong // [](int c){ return std::tolower(c); } // wrong // [](char c){ return std::tolower(c); } // wrong [](unsigned char c){ return std::tolower(c); } // correct ); return s; }

我自己的模板函数，执行大写/小写。

#include <string>
#include <algorithm>

//
//  Lowercases string
//
template <typename T>
std::basic_string<T> lowercase(const std::basic_string<T>& s)
{
    std::basic_string<T> s2 = s;
    std::transform(s2.begin(), s2.end(), s2.begin(), tolower);
    return s2;
}

//
// Uppercases string
//
template <typename T>
std::basic_string<T> uppercase(const std::basic_string<T>& s)
{
    std::basic_string<T> s2 = s;
    std::transform(s2.begin(), s2.end(), s2.begin(), toupper);
    return s2;
}
