Define Documentation

#define APR_DEFAULT_CHARSET   (const char *)0

This is to indicate the charset of the sourcecode at compile time names to indicate the charset of the source code at compile time. This is useful if there are literal strings in the source code which must be translated according to the charset of the source code.

#define APR_LOCALE_CHARSET   (const char *)1

To indicate charset names of the current locale

Function Documentation

apr_status_t apr_xlate_close

(

apr_xlate_t *

convset

)

Close a codepage translation handle.

Parameters:

convset

The codepage translation handle to close

Remarks:

Return APR_ENOTIMPL if charset transcoding is not available in this instance of apr-util (i.e., APR_HAS_XLATE is undefined).

apr_status_t apr_xlate_conv_buffer	(	apr_xlate_t *	convset,
		const char *	inbuf,
		apr_size_t *	inbytes_left,
		char *	outbuf,
		apr_size_t *	outbytes_left
	)

Convert a buffer of text from one codepage to another.

Parameters:

	convset	The handle allocated by apr_xlate_open, specifying the parameters of conversion
	inbuf	The address of the source buffer
	inbytes_left	Input: the amount of input data to be translated Output: the amount of input data not yet translated
	outbuf	The address of the destination buffer
	outbytes_left	Input: the size of the output buffer Output: the amount of the output buffer not yet used

Remarks:

Returns APR_ENOTIMPL if charset transcoding is not available in this instance of apr-util (i.e., APR_HAS_XLATE is undefined). Returns APR_INCOMPLETE if the input buffer ends in an incomplete multi-byte character.

To correctly terminate the output buffer for some multi-byte character set encodings, a final call must be made to this function after the complete input string has been converted, passing the inbuf and inbytes_left parameters as NULL. (Note that this mode only works from version 1.1.0 onwards)

apr_int32_t apr_xlate_conv_byte	(	apr_xlate_t *	convset,
		unsigned char	inchar
	)

Convert a single-byte character from one charset to another.

Parameters:

	convset	The handle allocated by apr_xlate_open, specifying the parameters of conversion
	inchar	The single-byte character to convert.

Warning:

This only works when converting between single-byte character sets. -1 will be returned if the conversion can't be performed.

apr_status_t apr_xlate_open	(	apr_xlate_t **	convset,
		const char *	topage,
		const char *	frompage,
		apr_pool_t *	pool
	)

Set up for converting text from one charset to another.

Parameters:

	convset	The handle to be filled in by this function
	topage	The name of the target charset
	frompage	The name of the source charset
	pool	The pool to use

Remarks:

Specify APR_DEFAULT_CHARSET for one of the charset names to indicate the charset of the source code at compile time. This is useful if there are literal strings in the source code which must be translated according to the charset of the source code. APR_DEFAULT_CHARSET is not useful if the source code of the caller was not encoded in the same charset as APR at compile time.

Specify APR_LOCALE_CHARSET for one of the charset names to indicate the charset of the current locale.

Return APR_EINVAL if unable to procure a convset, or APR_ENOTIMPL if charset transcoding is not available in this instance of apr-util at all (i.e., APR_HAS_XLATE is undefined).

apr_status_t apr_xlate_sb_get	(	apr_xlate_t *	convset,
		int *	onoff
	)

Find out whether or not the specified conversion is single-byte-only.

Parameters:

	convset	The handle allocated by apr_xlate_open, specifying the parameters of conversion
	onoff	Output: whether or not the conversion is single-byte-only

Remarks:

Return APR_ENOTIMPL if charset transcoding is not available in this instance of apr-util (i.e., APR_HAS_XLATE is undefined).
