.SH "Detailed Description"
.PP 
Coding system objects and API for them. 

The m17n library represents a character encoding scheme (CES) of coded character sets (CCS) as an object called \fIcoding\fP \fIsystem\fP. Application programs can add original coding systems.
.PP
To \fIencode\fP means converting code\-points to character codes and to \fIdecode\fP means converting character codes back to code\-points.
.PP
Application programs can decode a byte sequence with a specified coding system into an M\-text, and inversely, can encode an M\-text into a byte sequence.

.PP
\fBint \fBMConverter::lenient\fP\fP
.PP
If the conversion is strict, the converter stops at the first invalid byte (on decoding) or at the first character not supported by the coding system (on encoding). If this happens, \fCMConverter\->result\fP is set to \fCMCONVERSION_RESULT_INVALID_BYTE\fP or \fCMCONVERSION_RESULT_INVALID_CHAR\fP accordingly.
.PP
If the conversion is lenient, on decoding, an invalid byte is kept per se, and on encoding, an invalid character is replaced with '<U+XXXX>' (if the character is a Unicode character) or with '<M+XXXXXX>' (otherwise). 
.PP
\fBint \fBMConverter::last_block\fP\fP
.PP
On decoding, in the case that the last few bytes are too short to form a valid byte sequence:
.PP
If the value is nonzero, the conversion terminates by error (MCONVERSION_RESULT_INVALID_BYTE) at the first byte of the sequence.
.PP
If the value is zero, the conversion terminates successfully. Those bytes are stored in the converter as carryover and are prepended to the byte sequence of the further conversion.
.PP
On encoding, in the case that the coding system is context dependent:
.PP
If the value is nonzero, the conversion may produce a byte sequence at the end to reset the context to the initial state even if the source characters are zero.
.PP
If the value is zero, the conversion never produce such a byte sequence at the end.
