.SH NAME
detect_handledata, detect_handledata_r \- Detecting character set and measuring accuracy of charset

.SH SNOPSYS
.B "#include <chardet.h>"
.sp
.BI "short chardet_handledata (Detect ** handle, const char * inbuf, DetectObj ** outbuf);"
.sp
.BI "short chardet_handledata_r (Detect ** handle, const char * inbuf, size_t inlen, DetectObj ** outbuf);"

.SH DESCRIPTION
Storing charset and accuracy of
.B inbuf to
.B outbuf

The
.BI detect_handledata
API is deprecated becase this api is not binary safe. Use or replace to
.BI detect_handledata_r
api.

.SS Arguments:
.TP
.B handle
.br
.B Detect
handle resource that allocated by
.B detect_init
api.

.TP
.B inbuf
.br
input string for detecting

.TP
.B inlen
.br
length of input string for detecting

.TP
.B outbuf
.br
Stroing inforamtion of
.B inbuf.
The structure of
.B outbuf
is follows.

.nf
	typedef struct DetectObject {
		char * encoding;
		float confidence;
	} DetectObj;
.fi

The
.B outbuf
variable is must initialized by
.BI detect_obj_init
API before calling this detect api.

.SH "RETURN VALUES"
Returns following condition as case by case.

.TP
.B CHARDET_SUCCESS
.br
Detecting success

.TP
.B CHARDET_NO_RESULT
.br
Detection failure

.TP
.B CHARDET_NULL_OBJECT
.br
Don't initializing
.B outbuf
with
.BI chardet_obj_init

.TP
.B CHARDET_OUT_OF_MEMORY
.br
Occuring
.B "out of memory"
at internal API

.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
#include <chardet.h>

int main (void) {
	Detect    * d;
	DetectObj * obj;
	int i, arrayNum;
	char *str[] = {
		"this is ascii",
		"이건 euc-kr 입니다."
	};

	arrayNum = sizeof (str) / sizeof (str[0]);

	if ( (d = detect_init ()) == NULL ) {
		fprintf (stderr, "chardet handle initialize failed\\n");
		return CHARDET_MEM_ALLOCATED_FAIL;
	}

	for ( i=0; i<arrayNum; i++ ) {
		detect_reset (&d);

		if ( (obj = detect_obj_init ()) == NULL ) {
			fprintf (stderr, "Memory Allocation failed\\n");
			return CHARDET_MEM_ALLOCATED_FAIL;
		}

		//switch (detect_handledata (&d, str[i], &obj))
		switch (detect_handledata (&d, str[i], strlen(str[i]), &obj))
		{
			case CHARDET_OUT_OF_MEMORY :
				fprintf (stderr, "On handle processing, occured out of memory\\n");
				detect_obj_free (&obj);
				return CHARDET_OUT_OF_MEMORY;
			case CHARDET_NULL_OBJECT :
				fprintf (stderr,
						"2st argument of chardet() is must memory allocation "
						"with detect_obj_init API\\n");
				return CHARDET_NULL_OBJECT;
		}

		# check support obj->bom with CHARDET_BOM_CHECK constant
		printf ("encoding: %s, confidence: %f, exists bom: %d\\n", obj->encoding, obj->confidence, obj->bom);
		detect_obj_free (&obj);
	}
	detect_destroy (&d);

    return 0;
