.SH NAME
|

|
.SH SYNTAX
|
||
|
.B #include <libowfat/textcode.h>
|
||
|
|
||

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
scan_hexdump decodes hexdump data from src into dest.
|
||
|
It will stop when it encounters any non-valid input characters.
|
||
|
It will then write the number of decoded bytes in dest into *destlen,
|
||
|
and return the number of bytes decoded from src.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note that real world hexdump data is sometimes permitted to
|
||
|
contain whitespace characters or new lines. This function will not allow
|
||
|
those and return the decoded data until then.
|
||
|
|
||
|
dest can be NULL. destlen can be NULL.
|
||
|
|
||
|
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
||
|
scan_hexdump returns the number of bytes successfully scanned and
|
||
|
processed from src.
|
||
|
.SH EXAMPLES

|
scan_hexdump("302e",buf,&i) -> return 4, i=2, buf="0."
