The 40 converted data overlays the input data in the buffer pointed to by the ptr 41 parameter. *CURLE_OK* must be returned upon successful conversion. A 42 CURLcode return value defined by curl.h, such as *CURLE_CONV_FAILED*, 43 should be returned if an error was encountered. 44 45 CURLOPT_CONV_FROM_UTF8_FUNCTION(3) converts to host encoding from UTF8 46 encoding. It is required only for SSL processing. 47 48 If you set a callback pointer to NULL, or do not set it at all, the built-in 49 libcurl iconv functions are used. If HAVE_ICONV was not defined when libcurl 50 was built, and no callback has been established, the conversion returns the 51 CURLE_CONV_REQD error code. 52 53 If HAVE_ICONV is defined, CURL_ICONV_CODESET_OF_HOST must also be defined. 54 For example: 55 ~~~c 56 #define CURL_ICONV_CODESET_OF_HOST "IBM-1047" 57 ~~~ 58 59 The iconv code in libcurl defaults the network and UTF8 codeset names as 60 follows: 61 ~~~c 62 #define CURL_ICONV_CODESET_OF_NETWORK "ISO8859-1" 63 64 #define CURL_ICONV_CODESET_FOR_UTF8 "UTF-8" 65 ~~~ 66 67 You need to override these definitions if they are different on your system. 68 69 # DEFAULT 70 71 NULL 72 73 # %PROTOCOLS% 74 75 # EXAMPLE 76 77 ~~~c 78 static CURLcode my_conv_from_utf8_to_ebcdic(char *buffer, size_t length) 79 { 80 int rc = 0; 81 /* in-place convert 'buffer' from UTF-8 to EBCDIC */ 82 if(rc == 0) { 83 /* success */ 84 return CURLE_OK; 85 } 86 else { 87 return CURLE_CONV_FAILED; 88 } 89 } 90 91 int main(void) 92 { 93 CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); 94 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_CONV_FROM_UTF8_FUNCTION, 95 my_conv_from_utf8_to_ebcdic); 96 } 97 ~~~ 98 99 # DEPRECATED 100 101 Not available and deprecated since 7.82.0. 102 103 Available only if **CURL_DOES_CONVERSIONS** was defined when libcurl was 104 built. 105 106 # %AVAILABILITY% 107 108 # RETURN VALUE 109 110 curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error. 111 112 CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see 113 libcurl-errors(3).
