98 const unsigned char case_flags[],
99 size_t * output_length, char output[]);
102 punycode_encode() converts a sequence of code points (presumed to be
103 Unicode code points) to Punycode.
105 Input arguments (to be supplied by the caller):
107 input_length
108 The number of code points in the input array and the number
109 of flags in the case_flags array.
111 input
112 An array of code points. They are presumed to be Unicode
113 code points, but that is not strictly REQUIRED. The
114 array contains code points, not code units. UTF-16 uses
115 code units D800 through DFFF to refer to code points
116 10000..10FFFF. The code points D800..DFFF do not occur in
117 any valid Unicode string. The code points that can occur in
118 Unicode strings (0..D7FF and E000..10FFFF) are also called
119 Unicode scalar values.
121 case_flags
122 A null pointer or an array of boolean values parallel to
123 the input array. Nonzero (true, flagged) suggests that the
124 corresponding Unicode character be forced to uppercase after
125 being decoded (if possible), and zero (false, unflagged)
126 suggests that it be forced to lowercase (if possible).
127 ASCII code points (0..7F) are encoded literally, except that
128 ASCII letters are forced to uppercase or lowercase according
129 to the corresponding case flags. If case_flags is a null
130 pointer then ASCII letters are left as they are, and other
131 code points are treated as unflagged.
133 Output arguments (to be filled in by the function):
135 output
136 An array of ASCII code points. It is *not* null-terminated;
137 it will contain zeros if and only if the input contains
138 zeros. (Of course the caller can leave room for a
139 terminator and add one if needed.)
141 Input/output arguments (to be supplied by the caller and overwritten
142 by the function):
144 output_length
145 The caller passes in the maximum number of ASCII code points
146 that it can receive. On successful return it will contain
147 the number of ASCII code points actually output.
149 Return value:
151 Can be any of the punycode_status values defined above except
152 punycode_bad_input. If not punycode_success, then output_size
153 and output might contain garbage.
156 extern int punycode_decode (size_t input_length,
157 const char input[],
158 size_t * output_length,
159 punycode_uint output[],
160 unsigned char case_flags[]);
163 punycode_decode() converts Punycode to a sequence of code points
164 (presumed to be Unicode code points).
166 Input arguments (to be supplied by the caller):
168 input_length
169 The number of ASCII code points in the input array.
171 input
172 An array of ASCII code points (0..7F).
174 Output arguments (to be filled in by the function):
176 output
177 An array of code points like the input argument of
178 punycode_encode() (see above).
180 case_flags
181 A null pointer (if the flags are not needed by the caller)
182 or an array of boolean values parallel to the output array.
183 Nonzero (true, flagged) suggests that the corresponding
184 Unicode character be forced to uppercase by the caller (if
185 possible), and zero (false, unflagged) suggests that it
186 be forced to lowercase (if possible). ASCII code points
187 (0..7F) are output already in the proper case, but their
188 flags will be set appropriately so that applying the flags
189 would be harmless.
191 Input/output arguments (to be supplied by the caller and overwritten
192 by the function):
194 output_length
195 The caller passes in the maximum number of code points
196 that it can receive into the output array (which is also
197 the maximum number of flags that it can receive into the
198 case_flags array, if case_flags is not a null pointer). On
199 successful return it will contain the number of code points
200 actually output (which is also the number of flags actually
201 output, if case_flags is not a null pointer). The decoder
202 will never need to output more code points than the number
203 of ASCII code points in the input, because of the way the
204 encoding is defined. The number of code points output
205 cannot exceed the maximum possible value of a punycode_uint,
206 even if the supplied output_length is greater than that.
208 Return value:
210 Can be any of the punycode_status values defined above. If not
211 punycode_success, then output_length, output, and case_flags
212 might contain garbage.
