    std::locale const& loc,
    wformat_string<t_ARGS...> fmtStr,
    t_ARGS&&... args);

Description

In the event of an error throw the exception format_error. The behavior is undefined if out does not point to a valid bsl::wstring object. Note that this overload is provided in addition to the overloads in the standard library, and the requires clause is necessary to avoid ambiguity.
