Hi,

I am having problems with converting UTF-8 to Unicode.

Below is the code:

int charset_convert( char * string, char * to_string,char* charset_from, char* charset_to)
{
    char *from_buf, *to_buf, *pointer;
    size_t inbytesleft, outbytesleft, ret;
    size_t TotalLen;
    iconv_t cd;

    if (!charset_from || !charset_to || !string) /* sanity check */
        return -1;

    if (strlen(string) < 1)
        return 0; /* we are done, nothing to convert */

    cd = iconv_open(charset_to, charset_from);
    /* Did I succeed in getting a conversion descriptor ? */
    if (cd == (iconv_t)(-1)) {
        /* I guess not */
        printf("Failed to convert string from %s to %s ",
              charset_from, charset_to);
        return -1;
    }
    from_buf = string;
    inbytesleft = strlen(string);
    /* allocate max sized buffer, 
       assuming target encoding may be 4 byte unicode */
    outbytesleft = inbytesleft *4 ;
    pointer = to_buf = (char *)malloc(outbytesleft);
    memset(to_buf,0,outbytesleft);
    memset(pointer,0,outbytesleft);

        ret = iconv(cd, &from_buf, &inbytesleft, &pointer, &outbytesleft);ing
    memcpy(to_string,to_buf,(pointer-to_buf);
}

main():

int main()
{    
    char  UTF []= {'A', 'B'};
    char  Unicode[1024]= {0};
    char* ptr;
    int x=0;
    iconv_t cd;

    charset_convert(UTF,Unicode,"UTF-8","UNICODE");

    ptr = Unicode;

    while(*ptr != '\0')
    {   
        printf("Unicode %x \n",*ptr);
        ptr++;
    }
    return 0;
}

It should give A and B but i am getting:

ffffffff
fffffffe
41
