#include <pcre.h> int pcre16_utf16_to_host_byte_order(PCRE_UCHAR16 *output, PCRE_SPTR16input, intlength, int *host_byte_order, intkeep_boms);
This function, which exists only in the 16-bit library, converts a UTF-16 string to the correct order for the current host, taking account of any byte order marks (BOMs) within the string. Its arguments are:
outputpointer to output buffer, may be the same asinputinputpointer to input bufferlengthnumber of 16-bit units in the input, or negative for a zero-terminated stringhost_byte_ordera NULL value or a non-zero value pointed to means start in host byte orderkeep_bomsif non-zero, BOMs are copied to the output string
The result of the function is the number of 16-bit units placed into the output buffer, including the zero terminator if the string was zero-terminated.
If host_byte_order is not
NULL, it is set to indicate the byte order that is current at
the end of the string.
