- .SH NAME
- iconv_open_into \- initialize descriptor for character set conversion
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .nf
- .B #include <iconv.h>
- .sp
- .BI "int iconv_open_into (const char* " tocode ", const char* " fromcode ","
- .BI " iconv_allocation_t* " resultp );
- .fi
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- The \fBiconv_open_into\fP function initializes a conversion descriptor suitable
- for converting byte sequences from character encoding \fIfromcode\fP to
- character encoding \fItocode\fP. The conversion descriptor is stored in the
- memory pointed to by \fIresultp\fP.
- .PP
- The values permitted for \fIfromcode\fP and \fItocode\fP are the same as for
- the function \fBiconv_open\fP.
- .PP
- After a successful return from this function, \fIresultp\fP can be be used
- as an \fBiconv_t\fP object with the \fBiconv\fP function.
- .SH "RETURN VALUE"
- The \fBiconv_open_into\fP function fills \fB*\fP\fIresultp\fP and returns 0 if
- it succeeds. In case of error, it sets \fBerrno\fP and returns \-1.
- .SH ERRORS
- The following error can occur, among others:
- .TP
- .B EINVAL
- The conversion from \fIfromcode\fP to \fItocode\fP is not supported by the
- implementation.
- .SH "CONFORMING TO"
- This function is implemented only in GNU libiconv and not in other \fBiconv\fP
- implementations. It is not backed by a standard. You can test for its presence
- through \fB(_LIBICONV_VERSION >= 0x010D)\fP.
