Function Documentation

u_char* charset_convert (  const u_char *  toencode, size_t  in_len, const u_char *  from_charset, const u_char *  to_charset, size_t *  out_len_p )

This function tries to convert a string from charset from_charset to charset to_charset. Parameters: toencode  The string to convert in_len  The length of the string to convert from_charset  The starting charset to_charset  The target charset out_len_p  Pointer to a size_t variable. Will be filled with the length of the converted string Returns: The converted string on success or NULL on failure Attention: You have to free() the returned string! Definition at line 108 of file charconvert.c.

u_char* charset_convert_entities (  const u_char *  toencode, size_t  in_len, const u_char *  from, const u_char *  to, size_t *  outlen )

This function converts a string from a given charset to a given charset. If a character cannot be shown in the target charset it would be replaced by an HTML entity. Everything else will not be touched (e.g. > will be > after calling, too). Parameters: toencode  The string to encode in_len  The length of the string to encode from  The source character set to  The target character set outlen  A reference to a size_t variable to store the length of the new string in it Returns: NULL on failure, the new string on success Definition at line 400 of file charconvert.c.

u_char* htmlentities (  const u_char *  string, int  sq )

This function converts HTML special characters to their entities. These are < to <, > to >, & to & and " to ". If you set the parameter sq to 1, ' will be encoded to &#39;, too. Parameters: string  The string to convert sq  Switch which defines if ' shall be converted, too Returns: The converted string on success or NULL on failure Attention: You have to free() the returned string! Definition at line 168 of file charconvert.c.

u_char* htmlentities_charset_convert (  const u_char *  toencode, const u_char *  from, const u_char *  to, size_t *  outlen, int  sq )

This function converts a string from a given charset to a given charset and encodes all html active chars (<, >, &, " and optional '). If a character doesn't exist in the target charset, the character will be replaced by an named entity (if exists) or a unicode entity. Parameters: toencode  The string to encode from  The source character set to  The target character set outlen  A reference to a size_t variable to store the length of the new string in it sq  Boolean; if true, single quotes will be encoded to ' Returns: NULL on failure, the new string on success Definition at line 259 of file charconvert.c.

int is_valid_utf8_string (  const u_char *  str, size_t  len )

This function checks if the given string is a valid UTF-8 string Parameters: str  The string to check len  The length of the string Returns: Returns 0 if string is valid and -1 if it is not Definition at line 79 of file charconvert.c.

size_t print_htmlentities_encoded (  const u_char *  string, int  sq, FILE *  handle )

This function does the same as htmlentities(), but it writes the encoded string to a file handle Parameters: string  The string to encode and write sq  Switch which defines if ' shall be converted, too handle  The file handle to write in Returns: The number of characters written Definition at line 209 of file charconvert.c.

int utf8_to_unicode (  const u_char *  s, size_t  n, u_int32_t *  num )

This function converts a utf8 u_char string sequence to the unicode number. Parameters: s  The sequence string n  The length of the sequence string (used to check if sequence can be legal) num  Reference to a u_int32_t. The unicode number will be stored in it Returns: EILSEQ on failure, length of byte sequence on success Definition at line 32 of file charconvert.c.
