NAME
punycode_encode - encode Unicode to Punycode SYNOPSIS
#include <punycode.h> int punycode_encode(size_t input_length, const punycode_uint [] input, const unsigned char [] case_flags, size_t * output_length, char [] output); ARGUMENTS
size_t input_length The number of code points in the input array and the number of flags in the case_flags array. const punycode_uint [] input An array of code points. They are presumed to be Unicode code points, but that is not strictly REQUIRED. The array contains code points, not code units. UTF-16 uses code units D800 through DFFF to refer to code points 10000..10FFFF. The code points D800..DFFF do not occur in any valid Unicode string. The code points that can occur in Unicode strings (0..D7FF and E000..10FFFF) are also called Unicode scalar values. const unsigned char [] case_flags A NULL pointer or an array of boolean values parallel to the input array. Nonzero (true, flagged) suggests that the corre- sponding Unicode character be forced to uppercase after being decoded (if possible), and zero (false, unflagged) suggests that it be forced to lowercase (if possible). ASCII code points (0..7F) are encoded literally, except that ASCII letters are forced to uppercase or lowercase according to the corresponding case flags. If case_flags is a NULL pointer then ASCII letters are left as they are, and other code points are treated as unflagged. size_t * output_length The caller passes in the maximum number of ASCII code points that it can receive. On successful return it will contain the number of ASCII code points actually output. char [] output An array of ASCII code points. It is *not* null-terminated; it will contain zeros if and only if the input contains zeros. (Of course the caller can leave room for a terminator and add one if needed.) DESCRIPTION
Converts a sequence of code points (presumed to be Unicode code points) to Punycode. RETURN VALUE
The return value can be any of the Punycode_status values defined above except PUNYCODE_BAD_INPUT. If not PUNYCODE_SUCCESS, then out- put_size and output might contain garbage. REPORTING BUGS

NAME
idna_to_unicode_44i - API function SYNOPSIS
#include <idna.h> int idna_to_unicode_44i(const uint32_t * in, size_t inlen, uint32_t * out, size_t * outlen, int flags); ARGUMENTS
const uint32_t * in input array with unicode code points. size_t inlen length of input array with unicode code points. uint32_t * out output array with unicode code points. size_t * outlen on input, maximum size of output array with unicode code points, on exit, actual size of output array with unicode code points. int flags an Idna_flags value, e.g., IDNA_ALLOW_UNASSIGNED or IDNA_USE_STD3_ASCII_RULES. DESCRIPTION
The ToUnicode operation takes a sequence of Unicode code points that make up one domain label and returns a sequence of Unicode code points. If the input sequence is a label in ACE form, then the result is an equivalent internationalized label that is not in ACE form, otherwise the original sequence is returned unaltered. ToUnicode never fails. If any step fails, then the original input sequence is returned immediately in that step. The Punycode decoder can never output more code points than it inputs, but Nameprep can, and therefore ToUnicode can. Note that the number of octets needed to represent a sequence of code points depends on the particular character encoding used. The inputs to ToUnicode are a sequence of code points, the AllowUnassigned flag, and the UseSTD3ASCIIRules flag. The output of ToUnicode is always a sequence of Unicode code points. RETURN VALUE
Returns Idna_rc error condition, but it must only be used for debugging purposes. The output buffer is always guaranteed to contain the correct data according to the specification (sans malloc induced errors). NB! This means that you normally ignore the return code from this function, as checking it means breaking the standard. REPORTING BUGS
