idn_checkname(3)	    Library Functions Manual		idn_checkname(3)

NAME
     idn_checkname - validate an internationalized domain name

SYNOPSIS
     #include <idn/api.h>

     idn_result_t
     idn_checkname(idn_action_t actions, const char *from);

DESCRIPTION
     The  function idn_checkname() internally creates a copy of name, encodes it
     with idn_encodename() and returns its error code.

     In addition with action macros for idn_encodename() (e.g. IDN_UNICODECONV),
     the following macros are available for idn_checkname().

	 IDN_CHECK_REGIST
		Encode a domain name with IDNA2008 registration protocol to val-
		idate a domain name.   Currently,  its	value  is  the	same  as
		IDN_ENCODE_REGIST.

	 IDN_CHECK_LOOKUP
		Encode a domain name with IDNA2008 lookup protocol to validate a
		domain	name.	Currently,  its  value	is  the  same as IDN_EN-
		CODE_LOOKUP.

EXAMPLES
     The program below shows an example of idn_checkname().

	 idn_result_t r;
	 ...
	 r = idn_checkname(IDN_CHECK_REGIST, name);
	 if (r == idn_success)
	     fprintf(stderr, "'%s' is valid\n", name);
	 else {
	     fprintf(stderr, "'%s' is not valid: %s\n",
		  name, idn_result_tostring(r));
	 }
	 ...
