## Functions

### g_mime_iconv_strdup ()

    char *
    g_mime_iconv_strdup (iconv_t cd,
                         const char *str);

Allocates a new string buffer containing `str` converted to the destination charset described in `cd` .

#### Parameters

cd | conversion descriptor. | [type gpointer]
str | string in source charset |

#### Returns

a new string buffer containing the original string converted to the new charset.

### g_mime_iconv_strndup ()

    char *
    g_mime_iconv_strndup (iconv_t cd,

                          size_t n);

Allocates a new string buffer containing the first `n` bytes of `str` converted to the destination charset as described by the conversion descriptor `cd` .

[skip]

#### Parameters

cd | conversion descriptor. | [type gpointer]
str | string in source charset |
n | number of bytes to convert |

#### Returns

a new string buffer containing the first `n` bytes of `str` converted to the destination charset as described by the conversion descriptor `cd` .
