Function gdk::functions::utf8_to_string_target

pub fn utf8_to_string_target(str: &str) -> Option<GString>

Converts an UTF-8 string into the best possible representation as a STRING. The representation of characters not in STRING is not specified; it may be as pseudo-escape sequences \x{ABCD}, or it may be in some other form of approximation.

str

a UTF-8 string

Returns

the newly-allocated string, or None if the conversion failed. (It should not fail for any properly formed UTF-8 string unless system limits like memory or file descriptors are exceeded.)
