mconv_decode_buffer

Decode a buffer area based on a coding system.

MText* mconv_decode_buffer (MSymbol name, const unsigned char * buf, int n)

Decode a buffer area based on a coding system. The mconv_decode_buffer() function decodes n bytes of the buffer area pointed to by buf based on the coding system name. A temporary code converter for decoding is automatically created and freed.

If the operation was successful, mconv_decode_buffer() returns the resulting M-text. Otherwise it returns NULL and assigns an error code to the external variable merror_code.
