All internal strings are encoded in utf8: you should use the following conversion functions

val locale_from_utf8 : string -> string

Converts the input string from UTF-8 to the encoding of the current locale. If the locale's encoding is UTF-8, the string is simply validated and returned unmodified.

  • raises Error
