WSTR_TO_ASCII(3)	     http://www.synce.org/	      WSTR_TO_ASCII(3)

NAME
       wstr_to_ascii - wide string handling functions

SYNOPSIS
       #include <synce.h>

       char *wstr_to_ascii(LPCWSTR unicode);
       char *wstr_to_utf8(LPCWSTR unicode);
       char *wstr_to_current(LPCWSTR unicode);

       LPWSTR wstr_from_ascii(const char * ascii);
       LPWSTR wstr_from_utf8(const char * utf8);
       LPWSTR wstr_from_current(const char * utf8);

       void wstr_free_string(void * string);

       size_t wstrlen(LPCWSTR unicode);

       LPWSTR wstrcpy(LPWSTR dest, LPCWSTR src);

       bool wstr_append(LPWSTR dest, LPCWSTR src, size_t max_dest_length);

       bool wstr_equal(LPWSTR a, LPWSTR b);

       LPWSTR wstrdup(LPCWSTR string);

DESCRIPTION
       The wstr_to_xxx() functions convert a wide char string to the appropri‐
       ate local string. The wstr_from_xxx() functions	do  the	 reverse.  Use
       wstr_free_string() to free memory allocated for wide strings.

       wstrcpy() requires that dest is large enough to contain src.  No bounds
       checking is performed.

       wstr_append() requires that dest is at least max_dest_length  long.  No
       bounds checking is performed.

       The remaining functions perform standard string operations on wide char
       strings.

RETURN VALUE
       wstr_to_xxx() and wstr_from_xxx()  return  pointers  to	the  allocated
       strings,	 or  NULL  on  failure, which will occur if a source character
       cannot be represented in the destination encoding.

       wstrdup() return a pointer to the allocated string, or NULL on failure.
       wstrlen()  returns the string length.  wstrcpy() returns the pointer to
       src.

       wstr_append() returns false on failure eg. if the sum of the lengths is
       greater than max_dest_length, true on success.

       wstr_equal() returns true if a and b are equal, false otherwise.
