Synopsis

size_t saff_EUCToSTEP(char * instring, FILE *outfile)

Purpose

Write string to the output file assuming that the instring is EUC

Description

Given a input string which may contain Kanji Characters encoded according to the EUC-Japan standard, convert the characters to STEP Part 21 format encoding the Kanji characters to a \X2  (Unicode/ISO 10646) format. See section 7.3.3.2 of the Part 21 standard

Thsi function must be registered with the saff subsystem prior to calling the saff_FormatFile function. saff_FormatFile is normally called by using the mda_FormatFile macro on a model which is a STEP model. See saff_RegisterEncoder() for registering the function. A default encoder function (saff_EncodeString) is registered when saff_Initialize() is called.

This function uses the unl subsystem. unl_Initialize() must be called prior to invoking this function (or calling the formatter).

Input

instring

the input string to print out

outfile

File descriptor to write the string to

Return

The number of characters which were written out.
