The \fBcodesets\fR are those specified in \fIfromcode\fR and \fItocode\fR parameters. The \fIinarray\fR parameter points to a character byte array to the first character in the input array and \fIinlen\fR indicates the number of bytes to the end of the array to be converted. The \fIoutarray\fR parameter points to a character byte array to the first available byte in the output array and \fIoutlen\fR indicates the number of the available bytes to the end of the array. Unless \fBKICONV_IGNORE_NULL\fR is specified at flag, \fBkiconvstr()\fR function normally stops when it encounters \fBNULL\fR byte from the input array regardless of the current \fIinlen\fR value. .sp .LP If \fBKICONV_REPLACE_INVALID\fR is not specified at flag and if a sequence of input bytes does not form a valid character in the specified codeset, conversion stops after the previous successfully converted character. If \fBKICONV_REPLACE_INVALID\fR is not specified in \fIflag\fR and if the input array ends with an incomplete character or shift sequence, conversion stops after the previous successfully converted bytes. If the output array is not large enough to hold the entire converted input, conversion stops just prior to the input bytes that would cause the output array to overflow. The value pointed to by \fIinlen\fR is decremented to reflect the number of bytes still not converted in the input array. The value pointed to by \fIoutlen\fR is decremented to reflect the number of bytes still available in the output array. .sp .LP If \fBkiconvstr()\fR encounters a character in the input array that is legal, but for which an identical character does not exist in the target \fBcodeset\fR, \fBkiconvstr()\fR performs an implementation-defined conversion (that is, a non-identical conversion) on this character. .sp .LP If \fBKICONV_REPLACE_INVALID\fR is specified in \fIflag\fR and if \fBkiconvstr()\fR encounters illegal or incomplete characters in the input array, instead of stopping the conversion, \fBkiconvstr()\fR treats such characters as if they are non-identical characters and does non-identical conversions on such character bytes. .SH RETURN VALUES The \fBkiconvstr()\fR function updates the values pointed to by the \fIinlen\fR and \fIoutlen\fR parameters to reflect the extent of the conversion and returns the number of non-identical conversions performed. If the entire string in the input array is converted, the value pointed to by \fIinlen\fR is 0. If the input conversion is stopped due to any conditions mentioned above, the value pointed to by \fIinlen\fR is non-zero and \fIerrno\fR is set to indicate the condition. If an error occurs, \fBkiconvstr()\fR returns (\fBsize_t\fR)-1 and sets \fIerrno\fR to indicate the error. .SH CONTEXT \fBkiconvstr()\fR can be called from user or interrupt context. .SH EXAMPLES \fBExample 1 \fRPerforming a Code Conversion .sp .LP The following example converts a \fBNULL\fR-terminated \fBISO8859-2\fR pathname string to a \fBUTF-8\fR string and treats illegal and incomplete characters as non-identical conversion cases.
