uconvert_size(3)		Allegro manual		      uconvert_size(3)

NAME
       uconvert_size  - Number of bytes needed to store a string after conver‐
       sion. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS
       #include <allegro.h>

       int uconvert_size(const char *s, int type, int newtype);

DESCRIPTION
       Finds out how many bytes are required to store the specified string `s'
       after  a	 conversion  from `type' to `newtype', including the mandatory
       zero terminator of the string. You can use U_CURRENT for either	`type'
       or  `newtype'  as a shortcut to represent whatever text encoding format
       is currently selected. Example:

	  length = uconvert_size(old_string, U_CURRENT, U_UNICODE);
	  new_string = malloc(length);
	  ustrcpy(new_string, old_string);

RETURN VALUE
       Returns the number of bytes required to store the string after  conver‐
       sion.
