detect(3)

NAME
detect - Detecting character set and measuring accuracy of charset

SYNOPSIS
#include <chardet.h>

short chardet (char * inbuf, DetectObj ** outbuf);

DESCRIPTION
Storing charset and accuracy of inbuf to outbuf

inbuf
    input string for detecting

outbuf
    Stroing inforamtion of inbuf outbuf is follows.
    	typedef struct DetectObject {
    		char * encoding;
    		float confidence;
    	} DetectObj;
    The outbuf variable is must initialized by detect_obj_init API before calling this detect api.

RETURN VALUE
Returns following condition as case by case.

CHARDET_SUCCESS
    Detecting success

CHARDET_NO_RESULT
    Detection failure

CHARDET_NULL_OBJECT
    Don't initializing outbuf with chardet_obj_init

CHARDET_OUT_OF_MEMORY
    Occuring out of memory at internal API

EXAMPLE
#include <chardet.h>
int main (void) {
	DetectObj *obj;
	if ( (obj = detect_obj_init ()) == NULL ) {
		fprintf (stderr, "Memory Allocation failed\n");
		return CHARDET_MEM_ALLOCATED_FAIL;
	}
	switch (detect ("안녕하세요", &obj)) {
		case CHARDET_OUT_OF_MEMORY :
			fprintf (stderr, "On handle processing, occured out of memory\n");
			detect_obj_free (&obj);
			return CHARDET_OUT_OF_MEMORY;
		case CHARDET_NULL_OBJECT :
			fprintf (stderr,
					"2st argument of chardet() is must memory allocation "
					"with detect_obj_init API\n");
			return CHARDET_NULL_OBJECT;
	}
	printf ("encoding: %s, confidence: %f\n", obj->encoding, obj->confidence);
	detect_obj_free (&obj);
    return 0;
}
