-Iconv Module API
-================
-
-If using C, then you really should be using the libiconv stubs provided
-(or UnixLib, if appropriate). See the iconv.h header file for further
-documentation of these calls.
-
-Iconv_Open (&57540)
--------------------
-
- Create a conversion descriptor
-
- On Entry: r0 -> string containing name of destination encoding (eg "UTF-8")
- r1 -> string containing name of source encoding (eg "CP1252")
-
- On Exit: r0 = conversion descriptor
- All others preserved
-
- Either encoding name may have a number of parameters appended to them.
- Parameters are separated by a pair of forward-slashes ("//").
- Currently defined parameters are:
-
- Parameter: Destination: Source:
-
- TRANSLIT Transliterate unrepresentable None
- output.
-
- The conversion descriptor is an opaque value. The user should not,
- therefore, assume anything about its meaning, nor modify it in any way.
- Doing so is guaranteed to result in undefined behaviour.
-
-
-Iconv_Iconv (&57541)
---------------------
-
- This SWI is deprecated and Iconv_Convert should be used instead.
-
-
-Iconv_Close (&57542)
---------------------
-
- Destroy a conversion descriptor
-
- On Entry: r0 = conversion descriptor to destroy
-
- On Exit: r0 = 0
- All others preserved
-
-
-Iconv_Convert (&57543)
----------------------
-
- Convert a byte sequence to another encoding
-
- On Entry: r0 = conversion descriptor returned by Iconv_Open
- r1 -> input buffer (or NULL to reset encoding context)
- r2 = length of buffer pointed to by r1
- r3 -> output buffer
- r4 = length of buffer pointed to by r3
-
- On Exit: r0 = number of non-reversible conversions performed (always 0)
- r1 -> updated input buffer pointer (after last input read)
- r2 = number of bytes remaining in input buffer
- r3 -> updated output buffer pointer (i.e. end of output)
- r4 = number of free bytes in the output buffer
- All others preserved
-
- Note that all strings should be NUL-terminated so, if calling from BASIC,
- some terminating character munging may be needed.
-
-
-Errors:
-
-Should an error occur, the SWI will return with V set and r0 -> error buffer.
-Note that only the error number will be filled in and may be one of:
-
- ICONV_NOMEM (&81b900)
- ICONV_INVAL (&81b901)
- ICONV_2BIG (&81b902)
- ICONV_ILSEQ (&81b903)
-
-These map directly to the corresponding C errno values.
-
-
-Iconv_CreateMenu (&57544)
--------------------------
-
- Create a menu data structure containing all available encodings.
-
- On Entry: r0 = flags. All bits reserved, must be 0
- r1 -> buffer, or 0 to read required length
- r2 = length of buffer in r1
- r3 -> currently selected encoding name, or 0 if none selected
- r4 -> buffer for indirected data, or 0 to read length
- r5 = length of buffer in r4
-
- On Exit: r2 = required size of buffer in r1 if r1 = 0 on entry,
- or length of data placed in buffer
- r5 = required size of buffer in r4 if r4 = 0 on entry,
- or length of data placed in buffer
-
- Menu titles are direct form text buffers. Menu entries are indirect text.
- Entry text is stored in the buffer pointed to by R4 on entry to this call.
-
-
-Iconv_DecodeMenu (&57545)
--------------------------
-
- Decode a selection in a menu generated by Iconv_CreateMenu.
- Places the corresponding encoding name in the result buffer.
-
- On Entry: r0 = flags. All bits reserved, must be 0
- r1 -> menu definition
- r2 -> menu selections, as per Wimp_Poll
- r3 -> buffer for result or 0 to read required length
- r4 = buffer length
-
- On Exit: r4 = required size of buffer if r3 = 0 on entry,
- or length of data placed in buffer (0 if no selected
- encoding)
-
- The menu selections block pointed to by r2 on entry should be based at
- the root of the encodings menu structure (i.e. index 0 in the block
- should correspond to the selection in the main encoding menu).
-
- This call will update the selection status of the menu(s) appropriately.
