idn2_to_ascii_8z(3)		     libidn2		     idn2_to_ascii_8z(3)

NAME
     idn2_to_ascii_8z - API function

SYNOPSIS
     #include <idn2.h>

     int idn2_to_ascii_8z(const char * input, char ** output, int flags);

ARGUMENTS
     const char * input
		 zero terminated input UTF-8 string.

     char ** output
		 pointer to newly allocated output string.

     int flags	 optional idn2_flags to modify behaviour.

DESCRIPTION
     Convert  UTF-8  domain  name to ASCII string using the IDNA2008 rules.  The
     domain name may contain several labels,  separated  by  dots.   The  output
     buffer must be deallocated by the caller.

     The default behavior of this function (when flags are zero) is to apply the
     IDNA2008  rules  without  the TR46 amendments. As the TR46 non-transitional
     processing is nowadays ubiquitous, when unsure, it is recommended	to  call
     this  function  with  the IDN2_NONTRANSITIONAL and the IDN2_NFC_INPUT flags
     for compatibility with other software.

     Return value: Returns IDN2_OK on success, or error code.

SINCE
     2.0.0
