NAME

       firestring_estr_xml_encode  -  encode  an  estring  into  another estring for transmission
       inside XML data

SYNOPSIS

       #include <firestring.h>
       -lfirestring

       int    firestring_estr_xml_encode(struct    firestring_estr_t     *destination,     struct
       firestring_estr_t *source)

DESCRIPTION

       firestring_estr_xml_encode()  encodes  the  contents of source by escaping characters that
       might trigger XML processing into destination, provided that there is room in destination.
       The minimum required space in destination is the length of source * 6.

RETURN VALUE

       0 if the string was encoded successfully; 1 if there was insufficient space in destination
       for the encoding to occur.
