DESCRIPTION
     These functions are used to used to enable  translation   of
     character  strings used in the LDAP library to and from  the
     T.61 character set used in the LDAP protocol.  These   func-
     tions are only available if the LDAP and LBER libraries  are
     compiled with  STR_TRANSLATION defined. It is also  possible
     to turn on character translation by default so that all LDAP
     library callers will experience translation;  see  the  LDAP
     Make-common source file for details.


     ldap_set_string_translators() sets the translation functions
     that  will  be used by the LDAP library.  They are not actu-
     ally  used  until  the  ld_lberoptions  field  of  the  LDAP

     structure  is  set  to  include  the  LBER_TRANSLATE_STRINGS
     option.


     ldap_t61_to_8859() and  ldap_8859_to_t61()  are  translation
     functions  for  converting  between T.61 characters and ISO-
     8859 characters.  The specific 8859 character  set  used  is
     determined at compile time.


     ldap_translate_from_t61() is used to translate a  string  of
     characters  from the T.61 character set to a different char-
     acter  set.   The  actual  translation  is  done  using  the
     decode_proc   that   was   passed  to  a  previous  call  to
     ldap_set_string_translators(). On entry, *bufp should  point
     to  the  start  of  the T.61 characters to be translated and
     *lenp should contain the number of bytes to  translate.   If
     free_input  is  non-zero,  the input buffer will be freed if
     translation is a success.  If the translation is a  success,
     LDAP_SUCCESS  will  be returned, *bufp will point to a newly
     malloc'd buffer that contains the translated characters, and
     *lenp  will contain the length of the result. If translation
     fails, an LDAP error code will be returned.


     ldap_translate_to_t61() is used to  translate  a  string  of
     characters  to the T.61 character set from a different char-
     acter  set.   The  actual  translation  is  done  using  the
     encode_proc   that   was   passed  to  a  previous  call  to
     ldap_set_string_translators(). This function is called  just
     like ldap_translate_from_t61().


     ldap_enable_translation() is used to turn on or  off  string
     translation  for the LDAP entry entry (typically obtained by
     calling ldap_first_entry() or ldap_next_entry() after a suc-
     cessful  LDAP search operation). If enable is zero, transla-
     tion is disabled; if non-zero, translation is enabled.  This
     function  is  useful if you need to ensure that a particular
     attribute is not  translated  when  it  is  extracted  using
     ldap_get_values() or ldap_get_values_len(). For example, you
     would not want to translate  a  binary  attributes  such  as
     jpegPhoto.
