[fpc-devel] iconv unit/problem

[Marco van de Voort]

Hi,

because there are several bugreports asking for an iconv header
translations, and one contained a patch from Whitewind which I tried to
cleanup and get working.

I now have a bit of an odd problem with it that it seems to decode one char
less than the input specifies.

I tried to remedy this by always decoding a char more, but this messes up
the number of bytes written.

I wrapped everything up in a little test that decodes twice (one with N
chars as it should be one with N+1 chars) and a script to reproduce and put
it at

Probably it is something horribly simple, but I'm not seeing it :-)

Marco
