Hi all,
In GNU libc reference
https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Charset-Function-Overview.html
it is said:
A Unix C library contains three different
sets of functions in two families to
handle character set conversion.
Unfortunately, it is not specified in the GNU libc reference which
exactly are these families and sets.
My questions are:
I) is the following classification correct?
II) to which family and set each of the following functions belongs?
III) is the following list of functions complete?
--- Classification ---
Families:
1) character sets that are directly specified by the functions
2) character sets that are not directly specified by the functions
Sets of functions:
a) Restartable Conversion Functions.
b) Non-reentrant Conversion Functions.
c) Generic Charset Conversion Functions.
