stringprep_utf8_nfkc_normalize(3)   libidn   stringprep_utf8_nfkc_normalize(3)

NAME
       stringprep_utf8_nfkc_normalize -	API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<stringprep.h>

       char * stringprep_utf8_nfkc_normalize(const char	* str, ssize_t len);

ARGUMENTS
       const char * str
		   a UTF-8 encoded string.

       ssize_t len length of  str , in bytes, or -1 if	str is nul-terminated.

DESCRIPTION
       Converts	 a  string  into  canonical form, standardizing	such issues as
       whether a character with	an accent is represented as a  base  character
       and combining accent or as a single precomposed character.

       The  normalization mode is NFKC (ALL COMPOSE).  It standardizes differ-
       ences that do not affect	the text content, such as the  above-mentioned
       accent  representation.	It standardizes	the "compatibility" characters
       in Unicode, such	as SUPERSCRIPT THREE to	the standard  forms  (in  this
       case DIGIT THREE). Formatting information may be	lost but for most text
       operations  such	characters should be considered	the same. It returns a
       result with composed forms rather than a	maximally decomposed form.

       Return value: a newly allocated string, that  is	 the  NFKC  normalized
       form of	str .
