Public bug reported:
The appendixes of //TRANSLIT and //IGNORE can not work together on the same
call.
It appears that it only works the first one to appear.
Example Code:
#########################################
#include <iconv.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <memory>
#include <cstring>
#include <string>
#include <utf8.h>
int main()
{
const std::string in = "\xc5\xbd";
iconv_t cd = iconv_open("ISO8859-1//TRANSLIT//IGNORE", "UTF-8");
const char* inbuffer = in.c_str();
char outbuffer[in.length()*2+1];
memset(outbuffer, 0, in.length()*2+1);
size_t srclen = in.length();
size_t targetlen = in.length()*2+1;
char* wrptr = outbuffer;
iconv(cd,const_cast<char **>(&inbuffer), &srclen, &wrptr, &targetlen);
iconv_close(cd);
std::cout << outbuffer << std::endl;
}
########################################
With "//TRANSLIT" first:
- "?"
WITH "//IGNORE" first:
- ""
I am expecting to work together so that if there is a translit for that
character it translates it and if there is non it just ignores it
instead of writing a "?".
This is at least the behaviour i get when compiling in other platforms
(FreeBSD)
An while we are it we could add a translit for this specific case so
that "\xc5\xbd" => "Z" ?
Thanks in Advance
