 * SECTION:conversions
 * @title: Character Set Conversion
 * @short_description: convert strings between different character sets
 *
 * The g_convert() family of function wraps the functionality of iconv().
 * In addition to pure character set conversions, GLib has functions to
 * deal with the extra complications of encodings for file names.
 *
 * ## File Name Encodings
 *
 * Historically, UNIX has not had a defined encoding for file names:
 * a file name is valid as long as it does not have path separators
 * in it ("/"). However, displaying file names may require conversion:
 * from the character set in which they were created, to the character
 * set in which the application operates. Consider the Spanish file name
 * "Presentaci&oacute;n.sxi". If the application which created it uses
 * ISO-8859-1 for its encoding,
 * |[
 * Character:  P  r  e  s  e  n  t  a  c  i  ó  n  .  s  x  i
 * Hex code:   50 72 65 73 65 6e 74 61 63 69 f3 6e 2e 73 78 69
 * ]|
 * However, if the application use UTF-8, the actual file name on
 * disk would look like this:
 * |[
 * Character:  P  r  e  s  e  n  t  a  c  i  ó     n  .  s  x  i
 * Hex code:   50 72 65 73 65 6e 74 61 63 69 c3 b3 6e 2e 73 78 69
 * ]|
 * Glib uses UTF-8 for its strings, and GUI toolkits like GTK+ that use
 * Glib do the same thing. If you get a file name from the file system,
 * for example, from readdir() or from g_dir_read_name(), and you wish
 * to display the file name to the user, you  will need to convert it
 * into UTF-8. The opposite case is when the user types the name of a
 * file he wishes to save: the toolkit will give you that string in
 * UTF-8 encoding, and you will need to convert it to the character
 * set used for file names before you can create the file with open()
 * or fopen().
 *
 * By default, Glib assumes that file names on disk are in UTF-8
 * encoding. This is a valid assumption for file systems which
 * were created relatively recently: most applications use UTF-8
 * encoding for their strings, and that is also what they use for
 * the file names they create. However, older file systems may
 * still contain file names created in "older" encodings, such as
 * ISO-8859-1. In this case, for compatibility reasons, you may want
 * to instruct Glib to use that particular encoding for file names
 * rather than UTF-8. You can do this by specifying the encoding for
 * file names in the [`G_FILENAME_ENCODING`][G_FILENAME_ENCODING]
 * environment variable. For example, if your installation uses
 * ISO-8859-1 for file names, you can put this in your `~/.profile`
 * |[
 * export G_FILENAME_ENCODING=ISO-8859-1
 * ]|
 * Glib provides the functions g_filename_to_utf8() and
 * g_filename_from_utf8() to perform the necessary conversions.
 * These functions convert file names from the encoding specified
 * in `G_FILENAME_ENCODING` to UTF-8 and vice-versa. This
 * [diagram][file-name-encodings-diagram] illustrates how
 * these functions are used to convert between UTF-8 and the
 * encoding for file names in the file system.
 *
 * ## Conversion between file name encodings # {#file-name-encodings-diagram)
 *
 * ![](file-name-encodings.png)
 *
 * ## Checklist for Application Writers
 *
 * This section is a practical summary of the detailed
 * things to do to make sure your applications process file
 * name encodings correctly.
 * 
 * 1. If you get a file name from the file system from a function
 *    such as readdir() or gtk_file_chooser_get_filename(), you do
 *    not need to do any conversion to pass that file name to
 *    functions like open(), rename(), or fopen() -- those are "raw"
 *    file names which the file system understands.
 *
 * 2. If you need to display a file name, convert it to UTF-8 first
 *    by using g_filename_to_utf8(). If conversion fails, display a
 *    string like "Unknown file name". Do not convert this string back
 *    into the encoding used for file names if you wish to pass it to
 *    the file system; use the original file name instead.
 *
 *    For example, the document window of a word processor could display
 *    "Unknown file name" in its title bar but still let the user save
 *    the file, as it would keep the raw file name internally. This
 *    can happen if the user has not set the `G_FILENAME_ENCODING`
 *    environment variable even though he has files whose names are
 *    not encoded in UTF-8.
 *
 * 3. If your user interface lets the user type a file name for saving
 *    or renaming, convert it to the encoding used for file names in
 *    the file system by using g_filename_from_utf8(). Pass the converted
 *    file name to functions like fopen(). If conversion fails, ask the
 *    user to enter a different file name. This can happen if the user
 *    types Japanese characters when `G_FILENAME_ENCODING` is set to
 *    `ISO-8859-1`, for example.

 *                 nul-terminated (Note that some encodings may allow nul
 *                 bytes to occur inside strings. In that case, using -1
 *                 for the @len parameter is unsafe)
 * @to_codeset:   name of character set into which to convert @str
 * @from_codeset: character set of @str.
 * @fallback:     UTF-8 string to use in place of character not
 *                present in the target encoding. (The string must be
 *                representable in the target encoding). 
 *                If %NULL, characters not in the target encoding will 
 *                be represented as Unicode escapes \uxxxx or \Uxxxxyyyy.
 * @bytes_read:   location to store the number of bytes in the
 *                input string that were successfully converted, or %NULL.
 *                Even if the conversion was successful, this may be 
 *                less than @len if there were partial characters
 *                at the end of the input.
 * @bytes_written: the number of bytes stored in the output buffer (not 
 *                including the terminating nul).
 * @error:        location to store the error occurring, or %NULL to ignore
 *                errors. Any of the errors in #GConvertError may occur.
 *
 * Converts a string from one character set to another, possibly
 * including fallback sequences for characters not representable
 * in the output. Note that it is not guaranteed that the specification
 * for the fallback sequences in @fallback will be honored. Some
 * systems may do an approximate conversion from @from_codeset
 * to @to_codeset in their iconv() functions, 
 * in which case GLib will simply return that approximate conversion.
 *
 * Note that you should use g_iconv() for streaming conversions. 
 * Despite the fact that @bytes_read can return information about partial
 * characters, the g_convert_... functions are not generally suitable
 * for streaming. If the underlying converter maintains internal state,
 * then this won't be preserved across successive calls to g_convert(),
 * g_convert_with_iconv() or g_convert_with_fallback(). (An example of
 * this is the GNU C converter for CP1255 which does not emit a base
 * character until it knows that the next character is not a mark that
 * could combine with the base character.)
 *
 * Returns: If the conversion was successful, a newly allocated
 *               nul-terminated string, which must be freed with
 *               g_free(). Otherwise %NULL and @error will be set.
