- .SH NAME
- iconvctl \- control iconv behavior
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .nf
- .B #include <iconv.h>
- .sp
- .BI "int iconvctl (iconv_t " cd " , int " request ", void * " argument );
- .fi
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- The argument \fIcd\fP must be a conversion descriptor created using the
- function \fBiconv_open\fP.
- .PP
- \fBiconvctl\fP queries or adjusts the behavior of the \fBiconv\fP function,
- when invoked with the specified conversion descriptor, depending on the
- request value.
- .SH "REQUEST VALUES"
- The following are permissible values for the \fIrequest\fP parameter.
- .TP
- .B ICONV_TRIVIALP
- \fIargument\fP should be an \fBint *\fP which will receive 1 if the
- conversion is trivial, or 0 otherwise.
- .TP
- .B ICONV_GET_TRANSLITERATE
- \fIargument\fP should be an \fBint *\fP which will receive 1 if
- transliteration is enabled in the conversion, or 0 otherwise.
- .TP
- .B ICONV_SET_TRANSLITERATE
- \fIargument\fP should be a \fBconst int *\fP, pointing to an \fBint\fP value.
- A non-zero value is used to enable transliteration in the conversion. A zero
- value disables it.
- .TP
- .B ICONV_GET_DISCARD_ILSEQ
- \fIargument\fP should be an \fBint *\fP which will receive 1 if
- "illegal sequence discard and continue" is enabled in the conversion,
- or 0 otherwise.
- .TP
- .B ICONV_SET_DISCARD_ILSEQ
- \fIargument\fP should be a \fBconst int *\fP, pointing to an \fBint\fP value.
- A non-zero value is used to enable "illegal sequence discard and continue"
- in the conversion. A zero value disables it.
- .SH "RETURN VALUE"
- The \fBiconvctl\fP function returns 0 if it succeeds. In case of error, it sets
- \fBerrno\fP and returns \-1.
- .SH ERRORS
- The following errors can occur, among others:
- .TP
- .B EINVAL
- The request is invalid.
- .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 >= 0x0108)\fP.
- .SH "SEE ALSO"
