#include <pcre.h>int pcre32_utf32_to_host_byte_order(PCRE_UCHAR32 *output,PCRE_SPTR32input, intlength, int *host_byte_order,intkeep_boms);
This function, which exists only in the 32-bit library, converts a UTF-32 string to the correct order for the current host, taking account of any byte order marks (BOMs) within the string. Its arguments are:output pointer to output buffer, may be the same asinputinput pointer to input bufferlength number of 32-bit units in the input, or negative for a zero-terminated stringhost_byte_order a NULL value or a non-zero value pointed to means start in host byte orderkeep_boms if non-zero, BOMs are copied to the output string The result of the function is the number of 32-bit units placed into the output buffer, including the zero terminator if the string was zero-terminated. Ifhost_byte_order is not NULL, it is set to indicate the byte order that is current at the end of the string. There is a complete description of the PCRE native API in thepcreapipage and a description of the POSIX API in thepcreposix page.
