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 CURLcode 42 return value defined by curl.h, such as *CURLE_CONV_FAILED*, should be 43 returned if an error was encountered. 44 45 CURLOPT_CONV_TO_NETWORK_FUNCTION(3) converts from host encoding to the 46 network encoding. It is used when commands or ASCII data are sent over the 47 network. 48 49 If you set a callback pointer to NULL, or do not set it at all, the built-in 50 libcurl iconv functions are used. If HAVE_ICONV was not defined when libcurl 51 was built, and no callback has been established, the conversion returns the 52 CURLE_CONV_REQD error code. 53 54 If HAVE_ICONV is defined, CURL_ICONV_CODESET_OF_HOST must also be defined. 55 For example: 56 ~~~c 57 define CURL_ICONV_CODESET_OF_HOST "IBM-1047" 58 ~~~ 59 60 The iconv code in libcurl defaults the network and UTF8 codeset names as 61 follows: 62 63 ~~~c 64 #define CURL_ICONV_CODESET_OF_NETWORK "ISO8859-1" 65 66 #define CURL_ICONV_CODESET_FOR_UTF8 "UTF-8" 67 ~~~ 68 69 You need to override these definitions if they are different on your system. 70 71 # DEFAULT 72 73 NULL 74 75 # %PROTOCOLS% 76 77 # EXAMPLE 78 79 ~~~c 80 static CURLcode my_conv_from_ebcdic_to_ascii(char *buffer, size_t length) 81 { 82 int rc = 0; 83 /* in-place convert 'buffer' from EBCDIC to ASCII */ 84 if(rc == 0) { 85 /* success */ 86 return CURLE_OK; 87 } 88 else { 89 return CURLE_CONV_FAILED; 90 } 91 } 92 93 int main(void) 94 { 95 CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); 96 97 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_CONV_TO_NETWORK_FUNCTION, 98 my_conv_from_ebcdic_to_ascii); 99 } 100 ~~~ 101 102 # DEPRECATED 103 104 Not available and deprecated since 7.82.0. 105 106 Available only if **CURL_DOES_CONVERSIONS** was defined when libcurl was 107 built. 108 109 # %AVAILABILITY% 110 111 # RETURN VALUE 112 113 curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error. 114 115 CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see 116 libcurl-errors(3).
