TECCountDirectTextEncodingConversions

Header: TextEncodingConverter.h Carbon status: Supported

Counts and returns the number of direct conversions currently configured in the Text Encoding Converter.

OSStatus TECCountDirectTextEncodingConversions (
    ItemCount *numberOfEncodings
);
Parameter descriptions
numberOfEncodings

On return, a pointer to the number of direct conversions. You should use this value to determine the array size for a parameter of the TECGetDirectTextEncodingConversions function.

function result

A result code.

DISCUSSION

The number of direct conversions includes every instance of a conversion. If different conversion plug-ins support the same direct conversion, the direct conversion is counted more than once.

Since the TECGetDirectTextEncodingConversions function ignores duplicate direct conversions, TECCountDirectTextEncodingConversions may return a number greater than the number of array elements needed for the directConversions[] parameter.

AVAILABILITY

Supported in Carbon. Available in Carbon 1.0.2 and later when running Mac OS 8.1 or later.
