does @b not work because the temporary buffer returned by wxString::ToUTF8() is
destroyed and @c p is left pointing nowhere. To correct this you may use
destroyed and @c p is left pointing nowhere. To correct this you should use
@code
wxCharBuffer p(s.ToUTF8());
const wxScopedCharBuffer p(s.ToUTF8());

which does work but results in an unnecessary copy of string data in the build
configurations when wxString::ToUTF8() returns the pointer to internal string buffer.
If this inefficiency is important you may write
@code
const wxUTF8Buf p(s.ToUTF8());
puts(p);
@endcode
where @c wxUTF8Buf is the type corresponding to the real return type of wxString::ToUTF8().
which does work.
Similarly, wxWX2WCbuf can be used for the return type of wxString::wc_str().
But, once again, none of these cryptic types is really needed if you just pass
the return value of any of the functions mentioned in this section to another
