Introduction 1.1. Project/Component Working Name: Uconv functions at libc 1.2. Name of Document Author/Supplier: Author: Ienup Sung 1.3 Date of This Document: 06 September, 2007 4. Technical Description OVERVIEW PSARC/2005/446 introduced six Unicode enconding conversion functions at the kernel as Consolidation Private interfaces and then PSARC/2007/038 updated the interface stability to Committed. Based on the requirement from CIFS Server project team, this project proposes to make the same functions also available at the user space and in particular at libc. The user land interfaces proposed will provide the same functionalities as the kernel functions have and the man page is also pretty much the same as shown at [1]. The only differences are man page section name changes and such minor editorial changes to make the section 9F man page into the section 3C man page. The function prototypes will be listed in a user land specific header file, . INTERFACE STABILITY AND RELEASE BINDING There is no notable imported interfaces. The following are the exported interfaces: Interface Stability Reference uconv_u16tou32(), Consolidation Private [1] uconv_u16tou8(), uconv_u32tou16(), uconv_u32tou8(), uconv_u8tou16(), uconv_u8tou32() UCONV_* macros Committed [1] Committed A header file that has function prototypes and macros. The project team asks for Micro/Patch release binding.

Since you're asking this to me, at this point, no, I don't have a plan to have functions that will convert between wchar_t of various locales in various encodings and UTF-8/UTF-32. (If one needs such function, it will probably have to be a locale method and the user-level function will have to be a stub/wrapper function to the locale method of the current locale, as an idea.) BTW, the usual recommended way at this point as you know is using WC <-> MB <-> UTF-8 <-> UTF-32 if you're using non-UTF-8 locales by using wctomb()/mbtowc() and iconv(). If you're using UTF-8 locale, then, you can just do WC <-> MB to convert between UTF-32 and UTF-8 at least with SunOS/OS since we are all into this together with a guarantee that all UTF-8/Unicode locales of OS/SunOS will use UTF-32 as wide character and UTF-8 as file code. Once this project is integrated, for simple conversions between UTF-8 and UTF-32, you can also use uconv_u8tou32() or uconv_u32tou8() functions proposed in this project. >> Committed A header file that has >> function prototypes >> and macros. > > > What about renaming the header to , e.g. a > longer, more descriptive name may be better... ? It's a good suggestion and I thought about that too. Since we already have with PSARC/2007/458 as a Committed interface, I'm hoping to piggyback on the existing header file instead of creating a new header file or changing the existing header file name.
