NAME
     stringprep - prepare internationalized string

SYNOPSIS
     #include 

     int     stringprep(char     *     in,     size_t     maxlen,
     Stringprep_profile_flags flags

ARGUMENTS
     char * in   input/ouput array with string to prepare.

     size_t maxlen
                 maximum length of input/output array.

     Stringprep_profile_flags flags
                 a Stringprep_profile_flags value, or 0.

     const Stringprep_profile * profile
                 pointer to Stringprep_profile to use.

DESCRIPTION
     Prepare the input zero terminated UTF-8 string according  to
     the  stringprep  profile,  and  write back the result to the
     input string.

     Note that you must convert strings entered  in  the  systems
     locale   into   UTF-8   before   using  this  function,  see
     stringprep_locale_to_utf8().

     Since the stringprep operation can expand the string, maxlen
     indicate  how  large the buffer holding the string is.  This
     function will not read or write to characters  outside  that
     size.

     The flags are one of Stringprep_profile_flags values, or 0.

     The profile contain the Stringprep_profile  instructions  to
     perform.  Your application can define new profiles, possibly
     re-using the generic stringprep tables that always  will  be
     part  of  the library, or use one of the currently supported
     profiles.

RETURN VALUE
     Returns STRINGPREP_OK iff successful, or an error code.
