bson_utf8 - Man Page
UTF-8
Encoding
Libbson expects that you are always working with UTF-8 encoded text. Anything else is invalid API use.
If you should need to walk through UTF-8 sequences, you can use the various UTF-8 helper functions distributed with Libbson.
Validating a Utf-8 Sequence
To validate the string contained in my_string, use the following. You may pass -1 for the string length if you know the string is NULL-terminated.
if (!bson_utf8_validate (my_string, -1, false)) { printf ("Validation failed.\n"); }
If my_string has NULL bytes within the string, you must provide the string length. Use the following format. Notice the true at the end indicating \0 is allowed.
if (!bson_utf8_validate (my_string, my_string_len, true)) { printf ("Validation failed.\n"); }
For more information see the API reference for bson_utf8_validate().
