DESCRIPTION

The Fn libesedb_get_version function is used to retrieve the library version.

RETURN VALUES

Most of the functions return NULL or -1 on error, dependent on the return type. For the actual return values refer to libesedb.h

ENVIRONMENT

None

FILES

None

NOTES

libesedb uses mainly UTF-8 encoded strings except for filenames, but provides several UTF-16 functions.

ASCII strings in an EDB file contain an extended ASCII string using the codepage of the system it was created on. The function libesedb_set_ascii_codepage
 allows to set the required codepage for reading and writing. The default codepage is ASCII and replaces all extended characters to the Unicode replacement character (U+fffd) when reading and the ASCII substitude character (0x1a) when writing.

libesedb allows to be compiled with wide character support. To compile libesedb with wide character support use ./configure --enable-wide-character-type=yes or pass the definition HAVE_WIDE_CHARACTER_TYPE
 to the compiler (i.e. in case of Microsoft Visual Studio (MSVS) C++).

To have other code to determine if libesedb was compiled with wide character support it defines LIBESEDB_HAVE_WIDE_CHARACTER_TYPE
 in libesedb/features.h.

libesedb allows to be compiled with chained IO support using libbfio. libesedb will automatically detect if a compatible version of libbfio is available.

To have other code to determine if libesedb was compiled with libbfio support it defines LIBESEDB_HAVE_BFIO
 in libesedb/features.h.
