This library provides an iconv() implementation, for use on systems which
|
|
don't have one, or whose implementation cannot convert from/to Unicode.
|
|
|
|
It provides support for the encodings:
|
|
|
|
European languages
|
|
ASCII, ISO-8859-{1,2,3,4,5,7,9,10,13,14,15,16}, KOI8-R, KOI8-U, KOI8-RU,
|

CP{1250,1251,1252,1253,1254,1257}, CP{850,866}, Mac{Roman,CentralEurope,
|
|

|
|
Full Unicode
|
|
UTF-8, UCS-2, UCS-2BE, UCS-2LE, UCS-4, UCS-4BE, UCS-4LE, UTF-16,
|
|
UTF-16BE, UTF-16LE, UTF-7, JAVA
|
|
Full Unicode, in terms of `uint16_t' or `uint32_t'
|
|
(with machine dependent endianness and alignment)
|
|
UCS-2-INTERNAL, UCS-4-INTERNAL
|
|
|
|
It can convert from any of these encodings to any other, through Unicode
|
|
conversion. It has also some limited support for transliteration, i.e.
|
|
when a character cannot be represented in the target character set, it can
|
|
be approximated through one or several similarly looking characters.
|
|
|
|
libiconv is for you if your application needs to support multiple character
|
|
encodings, but that support lacks from your system.
