 SLPUnescape 3SLP "16 Jan 2003" "SunOS 5.11" "Service Location Protocol Library Functions"
 NAME
SLPUnescape - translate escaped characters into UTF-8
 SYNOPSIS

cc [ flag... ] file... -lslp [ library... ]
#include <slp.h>

SLPError SLPUnescape(const char *pcInBuf, char** ppcOutBuf,
 SLPBoolean isTag);


 DESCRIPTION

The SLPUnescape() function processes the input string in pcInbuf
and unescapes any SLP reserved characters. If the isTag parameter
is SLPTrue, then look for bad tag characters and signal an error if any
are found with the SLP_PARSE_ERROR code. No transformation is performed
if the input string is an opaque. The results are put into a buffer allocated
by the API library and returned in the ppcOutBuf parameter. This
buffer should be deallocated using SLPFree(3SLP) when the memory is no
longer needed.
 PARAMETERS

pcInBuf

Pointer to the input buffer to process for escape characters.


ppcOutBuf

Pointer to a pointer for the output buffer with the SLP reserved
characters escaped. Must be freed using SLPFree(3SLP) when the memory is
no longer needed.


isTag

When true, the input buffer is checked for bad tag characters.


 ERRORS

This function or its callback may return any SLP error code. See the
ERRORS section in slp_api(3SLP).
 EXAMPLES

Example 1 Using SLPUnescape()

The following example decodes the representation for ",tag,":

char* pcOutBuf;
SLPError err;

err = SLPUnescape("\\2c tag\\2c", &pcOutbuf, SLP_TRUE);


 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

SLP_CONF_FILE

When set, use this file for configuration.
