+.TH "stringprep" 3 "1.15" "libidn" "libidn"
+.SH NAME
+stringprep \- prepare internationalized string
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B #include <stringprep.h>
+.sp
+.BI "int stringprep(char * " in ", size_t " maxlen ", Stringprep_profile_flags " flags ", const Stringprep_profile * " profile ");"
+.SH ARGUMENTS
+.IP "char * in" 12
+input/ouput array with string to prepare.
+.IP "size_t maxlen" 12
+maximum length of input/output array.
+.IP "Stringprep_profile_flags flags" 12
+a \fBStringprep_profile_flags\fP value, or 0.
+.IP "const Stringprep_profile * profile" 12
+pointer to \fBStringprep_profile\fP to use.
+.SH "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
+\fBstringprep_locale_to_utf8()\fP.
+
+Since the stringprep operation can expand the string, \fImaxlen\fP
+indicate how large the buffer holding the string is. This function
+will not read or write to characters outside that size.
+
+The \fIflags\fP are one of \fBStringprep_profile_flags\fP values, or 0.
+
+The \fIprofile\fP contain the \fBStringprep_profile\fP 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.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+Returns \fBSTRINGPREP_OK\fP iff successful, or an error code.
+.SH "REPORTING BUGS"
+Report bugs to <bug-libidn@gnu.org>.
