9.3 Example 3

This example demonstrates how the library is used to convert internationalized domain names into ASCII compatible names.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <locale.h>		/* setlocale() */
#include <stringprep.h>		/* stringprep_locale_charset() */
#include <idna.h>		/* idna_to_ascii_lz() */

/*
 * Compiling using libtool and pkg-config is recommended:
 *
 * $ libtool cc -o example3 example3.c `pkg-config --cflags --libs libidn`
 * $ ./example3
 * Input domain encoded as `ISO-8859-1': www.räksmörgåsª.example
 * Read string (length 23): 77 77 77 2e 72 e4 6b 73 6d f6 72 67 e5 73 aa 2e 65 78 61 6d 70 6c 65
