Ubuntu 8.04 x86.

I am learning the QT package, and for example its QString provides a 
toStdString() function that returns a std::string and a toStdWString() function
that returns a std::wstring.


The specific member function I have the problem:


void MainWindow::saveFile()
{
    using namespace std;


    QString fileName= QFileDialog::getSaveFileName(this, tr("Save file"),
tr(""), tr("Text files (*.txt)"));


    if(!fileName.isEmpty())
    {
        string cFileName= fileName.toStdString();

        wofstream cFile(cFileName.c_str());


        if(cFile.is_open())
        {
            QString text= textEdit->toPlainText();

            wstring writtenText= text.toStdWString();

            cFile<< writtenText;
         }


         else
            QMessageBox::critical(this, "Unable to save file!", "The file could
not be created!", QMessageBox::Close);
      }
}


My system *is* GNU/Linux. Apart from that, why "named locales are supported
only on GNU/Linux systems"?


MINGW doesn't accept them for example?


In any case, my problem is in a GNU/Linux system.
