Libidn's purpose is to encode and decode internationalized domain name strings. There are native C, C# and Java libraries. <p>The C library contains a generic Stringprep implementation. Profiles for Nameprep, iSCSI, SASL, XMPP and Kerberos V5 are included. Punycode and ASCII Compatible Encoding (ACE) via IDNA are supported. A mechanism to define Top-Level Domain (TLD) specific validation tables, and to compare strings against those tables, is included. Default tables for some TLDs are also included. <p>The Stringprep API consists of two main functions, one for converting data from the system's native representation into UTF-8, and one function to perform the Stringprep processing. Adding a new Stringprep profile for your application within the API is straightforward. The Punycode API consists of one encoding function and one decoding function. The IDNA API consists of the ToASCII and ToUnicode functions, as well as an high-level interface for converting entire domain names to and from the ACE encoded form. The TLD API consists of one set of functions to extract the TLD name from a domain string, one set of functions to locate the proper TLD table to use based on the TLD name, and core functions to validate a string against a TLD table, and some utility wrappers to perform all the steps in one call. <p>The library is used by, e.g., GNU SASL and Shishi to process user names and passwords. Libidn can be built into GNU Libc to enable a new system-wide getaddrinfo flag for IDN processing. <p>Libidn is developed for the GNU/Linux system, but runs on over 20 Unix platforms (including Solaris, IRIX, AIX, and Tru64) and Windows. The library is written in C and (parts of) the API is also accessible from C++, Emacs Lisp, Python and Java. A native Java and C# port is included. <p>Also included is a command line tool, several self tests, code examples, and more. <ul class="menu"> <li><a accesskey="1" href="#Getting-Started">Getting Started</a> <li><a accesskey="2" href="#Features">Features</a> <li><a accesskey="3" href="#Library-Overview">Library Overview</a> <li><a accesskey="4" href="#Supported-Platforms">Supported Platforms</a> <li><a accesskey="5" href="#Getting-help">Getting help</a> <li><a accesskey="6" href="#Commercial-Support">Commercial Support</a> <li><a accesskey="7" href="#Downloading-and-Installing">Downloading and Installing</a> <li><a accesskey="8" href="#Bug-Reports">Bug Reports</a> <li><a accesskey="9" href="#Contributing">Contributing</a> </ul> <div class="node"> <a name="Getting-Started"></a> <p><hr> Next: <a rel="next" accesskey="n" href="#Features">Features</a>, Up: <a rel="up" accesskey="u" href="#Introduction">Introduction</a> </div> <h3 class="section">1.1 Getting Started</h3> <p>This manual documents the library programming interface. All functions and data types provided by the library are explained. Included are also examples, and documentation for the command line tool <samp><span class="file">idn</span></samp> that provide a quick interface to the library. The Emacs Lisp bindings for the library is also discussed. <p>The reader is assumed to possess basic familiarity with internationalization concepts and network programming in C or C++. <p>This manual can be used in several ways. If read from the beginning to the end, it gives a good introduction into the library and how it can be used in an application. Forward references are included where necessary. Later on, the manual can be used as a reference manual to get just the information needed about any particular interface of the library. Experienced programmers might want to start looking at the examples at the end of the manual (see <a href="#Examples">Examples</a>), and then only read up those parts of the interface which are unclear. <div class="node"> <a name="Features"></a> <p><hr> Next: <a rel="next" accesskey="n" href="#Library-Overview">Library Overview</a>, Previous: <a rel="previous" accesskey="p" href="#Getting-Started">Getting Started</a>, Up: <a rel="up" accesskey="u" href="#Introduction">Introduction</a> </div> <h3 class="section">1.2 Features</h3> <p>This library might have a couple of advantages over other libraries doing a similar job. <dl> <dt>It's Free Software<dd>Anybody can use, modify, and redistribute it under the terms of a free software license. <br><dt>It's thread-safe<dd>No global state is kept in the library. All functions are re-entrant. <br><dt>It's portable<dd>The code is intended to be written in pure ANSI C89. It has been tested on many Unix like operating systems, and Windows. <br><dt>It's modularized<dd>The library is composed of several modules, and the only interaction between modules is through each modules' public API. If you only need one piece of functionality, it is possible to take the files you need and incorporate them into your own project. <br><dt>It's not bloated<dd>The design of the library is based on the smallest API necessary to implement the basic functionality. It has been carefully extended with a small number of high-level wrappers to make it comfortable to use the library. However, it does not implement additional functionality just for the sake of completeness. <br><dt>It's documented<dd>Sadly, not all software comes with documentation these days. This one does. </dl> <div class="node"> <a name="Library-Overview"></a> <p><hr> Next: <a rel="next" accesskey="n" href="#Supported-Platforms">Supported Platforms</a>, Previous: <a rel="previous" accesskey="p" href="#Features">Features</a>, Up: <a rel="up" accesskey="u" href="#Introduction">Introduction</a> </div> <h3 class="section">1.3 Library Overview</h3> <p>The following illustration show the components that make up Libidn, and how your application relates to the library. In the illustration, various components are shown as boxes. You see the generic StringPrep component, the various StringPrep profiles including Nameprep, the Punycode component, the IDNA component, and the TLD component. The arrows indicate aggregation, e.g., IDNA uses Punycode and Nameprep, and in turn Nameprep uses the generic StringPrep interface. The interfaces to all components are available for applications, no component within the library is hidden from the application. <div class="block-image"><img src="libidn-components.png" alt="libidn-components.png"></div> <div class="node"> <a name="Supported-Platforms"></a> <p><hr> Next: <a rel="next" accesskey="n" href="#Getting-help">Getting help</a>, Previous: <a rel="previous" accesskey="p" href="#Library-Overview">Library Overview</a>, Up: <a rel="up" accesskey="u" href="#Introduction">Introduction</a> </div> <h3 class="section">1.4 Supported Platforms</h3> <p>Libidn has at some point in time been tested on the following platforms.

You must include the appropriate header files in all programs using the library, either directly or through some other header file, like this: <pre class="example"> #include <stringprep.h> </pre> <p>The header files and the functions they define are categorized as follows: <dl> <dt>stringprep.h<dd> The low-level stringprep API entry point. For IDN applications, this is usually invoked via IDNA. Some applications, specifically non-IDN ones, may want to prepare strings directly though, and should include this header file. <p>The name space of the stringprep part of Libidn is <code>stringprep</code> for function names, <code>Stringprep</code> for data types and <code>STRINGPREP_</code> for other symbols. In addition, <code>_stringprep</code> is reserved for internal use and should never be used by applications. <br><dt>punycode.h<dd> The entry point to Punycode encoding and decoding functions. Normally punycode is used via the idna.h interface, but some application may want to perform raw punycode operations. <p>The name space of the punycode part of Libidn is <code>punycode_</code> for function names, <code>Punycode</code> for data types and <code>PUNYCODE_</code> for other symbols. In addition, <code>_punycode</code> is reserved for internal use and should never be used by applications. <br><dt>idna.h<dd> The entry point to the IDNA functions. This is the normal entry point for applications that need IDN functionality. <p>The name space of the IDNA part of Libidn is <code>idna_</code> for function names, <code>Idna</code> for data types and <code>IDNA_</code> for other symbols. In addition, <code>_idna</code> is reserved for internal use and should never be used by applications. <br><dt>tld.h<dd> The entry point to the TLD functions. Normal applications are not expected to need this functionality, but it is present for applications that are used by TLDs to validate customer input. <p>The name space of the TLD part of Libidn is <code>tld_</code> for function names, <code>Tld_</code> for data types and <code>TLD_</code> for other symbols. In addition, <code>_tld</code> is reserved for internal use and should never be used by applications. <br><dt>pr29.h<dd> The entry point to the PR29 functions. These functions are used to detect “problem sequences” (see <a href="#PR29-Functions">PR29 Functions</a>), mostly for use in security critical applications. <p>The name space of the PR29 part of Libidn is <code>pr29_</code> for function names, <code>Pr29_</code> for data types and <code>PR29_</code> for other symbols. In addition, <code>_pr29</code> is reserved for internal use and should never be used by applications. <br><dt>idn-free.h<dd> The entry point to the Windows memory de-allocation function (see <a href="#Memory-handling-under-Windows">Memory handling under Windows</a>). It contains only one function <code>idn_free</code>. </dl> <p>All header files defined and use the symbol <code>IDNAPI</code> to decorate the API functions. <div class="node"> <a name="Initialization"></a> <p><hr> Next: <a rel="next" accesskey="n" href="#Version-Check">Version Check</a>, Previous: <a rel="previous" accesskey="p" href="#Header">Header</a>, Up: <a rel="up" accesskey="u" href="#Preparation">Preparation</a> </div> <h3 class="section">2.2 Initialization</h3> <p>Libidn is stateless and does not need any initialization. <div class="node"> <a name="Version-Check"></a> <p><hr> Next: <a rel="next" accesskey="n" href="#Building-the-source">Building the source</a>, Previous: <a rel="previous" accesskey="p" href="#Initialization">Initialization</a>, Up: <a rel="up" accesskey="u" href="#Preparation">Preparation</a> </div> <h3 class="section">2.3 Version Check</h3> <p>It is often desirable to check that the version of `Libidn' used is indeed one which fits all requirements. Even with binary compatibility new features may have been introduced but due to problem with the dynamic linker an old version is actually used. So you may want to check that the version is okay right after program startup. <h4 class="subheading">stringprep_check_version</h4> <p><a name="stringprep_005fcheck_005fversion"></a> <div class="defun"> — Function: const char * <b>stringprep_check_version</b> (<var>const char * req_version</var>)<var><a name="index-stringprep_005fcheck_005fversion-40"></a></var><br> <blockquote><p><var>req_version</var>: Required version number, or NULL. <p>Check that the version of the library is at minimum the requested one and return the version string; return NULL if the condition is not satisfied.

This is accomplished by adding the path to the directory in which the header file is located to the compilers include file search path (via the <samp><span class="option">-I</span></samp> option). <p>However, the path to the include file is determined at the time the source is configured. To solve this problem, `Libidn' uses the external package <samp><span class="command">pkg-config</span></samp> that knows the path to the include file and other configuration options. The options that need to be added to the compiler invocation at compile time are output by the <samp><span class="option">--cflags</span></samp> option to <samp><span class="command">pkg-config libidn</span></samp>. The following example shows how it can be used at the command line: <pre class="example"> gcc -c foo.c `pkg-config libidn --cflags` </pre> <p>Adding the output of ‘<samp><span class="samp">pkg-config libidn --cflags</span></samp>’ to the compilers command line will ensure that the compiler can find e.g. the idna.h header file. <p>A similar problem occurs when linking the program with the library. Again, the compiler has to find the library files. For this to work, the path to the library files has to be added to the library search path (via the <samp><span class="option">-L</span></samp> option). For this, the option <samp><span class="option">--libs</span></samp> to <samp><span class="command">pkg-config libidn</span></samp> can be used. For convenience, this option also outputs all other options that are required to link the program with the `libidn' library. The example shows how to link <samp><span class="file">foo.o</span></samp> with the `libidn' library to a program <samp><span class="command">foo</span></samp>. <pre class="example"> gcc -o foo foo.o `pkg-config libidn --libs` </pre> <p>Of course you can also combine both examples to a single command by specifying both options to <samp><span class="command">pkg-config</span></samp>: <pre class="example"> gcc -o foo foo.c `pkg-config libidn --cflags --libs` </pre> <div class="node"> <a name="Autoconf-tests"></a> <p><hr> Next: <a rel="next" accesskey="n" href="#Memory-handling-under-Windows">Memory handling under Windows</a>, Previous: <a rel="previous" accesskey="p" href="#Building-the-source">Building the source</a>, Up: <a rel="up" accesskey="u" href="#Preparation">Preparation</a> </div> <h3 class="section">2.5 Autoconf tests</h3> <p><a name="index-Autoconf-tests-42"></a><a name="index-Configure-tests-43"></a> If your project uses Autoconf (see <a href="autoconf.html#Top">GNU Autoconf</a>) to check for installed libraries, you might find the following snippet illustrative.

The default behaviour is to search for the library and enable the functionality (that is, define the symbol) when the library is found, but if you wish to make the default behaviour of your package be that Libidn is not used (even if it is installed on the system), change ‘<samp><span class="samp">libidn=yes</span></samp>’ to ‘<samp><span class="samp">libidn=no</span></samp>’ on the third line. <pre class="example"> AC_ARG_WITH(libidn, AC_HELP_STRING([--with-libidn=[DIR]], [Support IDN (needs GNU Libidn)]), libidn=$withval, libidn=yes) if test "$libidn" != "no"; then if test "$libidn" != "yes"; then LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} -L$libidn/lib" CPPFLAGS="${CPPFLAGS} -I$libidn/include" fi AC_CHECK_HEADER(idna.h, AC_CHECK_LIB(idn, stringprep_check_version, [libidn=yes LIBS="${LIBS} -lidn"], libidn=no), libidn=no) fi if test "$libidn" != "no" ; then AC_DEFINE(LIBIDN, 1, [Define to 1 if you want IDN support.]) else AC_MSG_WARN([Libidn not found]) fi AC_MSG_CHECKING([if Libidn should be used]) AC_MSG_RESULT($libidn) </pre> <p>If you require that your users have installed <code>pkg-config</code> (which I cannot recommend generally), the above can be done more easily as follows. <pre class="example"> AC_ARG_WITH(libidn, AC_HELP_STRING([--with-libidn=[DIR]], [Support IDN (needs GNU Libidn)]), libidn=$withval, libidn=yes) if test "$libidn" != "no" ; then PKG_CHECK_MODULES(LIBIDN, libidn >= 0.0.0, [libidn=yes], [libidn=no]) if test "$libidn" != "yes" ; then libidn=no AC_MSG_WARN([Libidn not found]) else libidn=yes AC_DEFINE(LIBIDN, 1, [Define to 1 if you want Libidn.]) fi fi AC_MSG_CHECKING([if Libidn should be used]) AC_MSG_RESULT($libidn) </pre> <div class="node"> <a name="Memory-handling-under-Windows"></a> <p><hr> Previous: <a rel="previous" accesskey="p" href="#Autoconf-tests">Autoconf tests</a>, Up: <a rel="up" accesskey="u" href="#Preparation">Preparation</a> </div> <h3 class="section">2.6 Memory handling under Windows</h3> <p><a name="index-free-44"></a><a name="index-Memory-handling-45"></a><a name="index-de_002dallocation-46"></a><a name="index-heap-memory-47"></a> Several functions in the library allocates memory.

IDNA is only meant for processing domain names, not free text. <h3 class="section">6.1 Header file <code>idna.h</code></h3> <p>To use the functions explained in this chapter, you need to include the file <samp><span class="file">idna.h</span></samp> using: <pre class="example"> #include <idna.h> </pre> <h3 class="section">6.2 Control Flags</h3> <p>The IDNA <code>flags</code> parameter can take on the following values, or a bit-wise inclusive or of any subset of the parameters: <div class="defun"> — Return code: Idna_flags <b>IDNA_ALLOW_UNASSIGNED</b><var><a name="index-IDNA_005fALLOW_005fUNASSIGNED-80"></a></var><br> <blockquote><p>Allow unassigned Unicode code points. </p></blockquote></div> <div class="defun"> — Return code: Idna_flags <b>IDNA_USE_STD3_ASCII_RULES</b><var><a name="index-IDNA_005fUSE_005fSTD3_005fASCII_005fRULES-81"></a></var><br> <blockquote><p>Check output to make sure it is a STD3 conforming host name. </p></blockquote></div> <h3 class="section">6.3 Prefix String</h3> <div class="defun"> — Macro: #define <b>IDNA_ACE_PREFIX</b><var><a name="index-IDNA_005fACE_005fPREFIX-82"></a></var><br> <blockquote><p>String with the official IDNA prefix, <code>xn--</code>. </p></blockquote></div> <h3 class="section">6.4 Core Functions</h3> <p>The idea behind the IDNA function names are as follows: the <code>idna_to_ascii_4i</code> and <code>idna_to_unicode_44i</code> functions are the core IDNA primitives. The <code>4</code> indicate that the function takes UCS-4 strings (i.e., Unicode code points encoded in a 32-bit unsigned integer type) of the specified length. The <code>i</code> indicate that the data is written “inline” into the buffer. This means the caller is responsible for allocating (and de-allocating) the string, and providing the library with the allocated length of the string. The output length is written in the output length variable. The remaining functions all contain the <code>z</code> indicator, which means the strings are zero terminated. All output strings are allocated by the library, and must be de-allocated by the caller. The <code>4</code> indicator again means that the string is UCS-4, the <code>8</code> means the strings are UTF-8 and the <code>l</code> indicator means the strings are encoded in the encoding used by the current locale. <p>The functions provided are the following entry points: <h4 class="subheading">idna_to_ascii_4i</h4> <p><a name="idna_005fto_005fascii_005f4i"></a> <div class="defun"> — Function: int <b>idna_to_ascii_4i</b> (<var>const uint32_t * in, size_t inlen, char * out, int flags</var>)<var><a name="index-idna_005fto_005fascii_005f4i-83"></a></var><br> <blockquote><p><var>in</var>: input array with unicode code points. <p><var>inlen</var>: length of input array with unicode code points. <p><var>out</var>: output zero terminated string that must have room for at least 63 characters plus the terminating zero. <p><var>flags</var>: an <code>Idna_flags</code> value, e.g., <code>IDNA_ALLOW_UNASSIGNED</code> or <code>IDNA_USE_STD3_ASCII_RULES</code>. <p>The ToASCII operation takes a sequence of Unicode code points that make up one domain label and transforms it into a sequence of code points in the ASCII range (0..7F). If ToASCII succeeds, the original sequence and the resulting sequence are equivalent labels. <p>It is important to note that the ToASCII operation can fail. ToASCII fails if any step of it fails. If any step of the ToASCII operation fails on any label in a domain name, that domain name MUST NOT be used as an internationalized domain name. The method for deadling with this failure is application-specific. <p>The inputs to ToASCII are a sequence of code points, the AllowUnassigned flag, and the UseSTD3ASCIIRules flag. The output of ToASCII is either a sequence of ASCII code points or a failure condition. <p>ToASCII never alters a sequence of code points that are all in the ASCII range to begin with (although it could fail).

The reason may be to reduce complexity that come from using the full Unicode range, and to protect themselves from future (backwards incompatible) changes in the IDN or Unicode specifications. Libidn implement an infrastructure for defining and checking strings against such tables. Libidn also ship some tables from TLDs that we have managed to get permission to use them from. Because these tables are even less static than Unicode or StringPrep tables, it is likely that they will be updated from time to time (even in backwards incompatible ways). The Libidn interface provide a “version” field for each TLD table, which can be compared for equality to guarantee the same operation over time. <p>From a design point of view, you can regard the TLD tables for IDN as the “localization” step that come after the “internationalization” step provided by the IETF standards. <p>The TLD functionality rely on up-to-date tables. The latest version of Libidn aim to provide these, but tables with unclear copying conditions, or generally experimental tables, are not included.

The consequence is that some strings can be normalized into different strings by different implementations. In other words, two different implementations may return different output for the same input (because the interpretation of the specification is ambiguous). Further, an implementation invoked again on the one of the output strings may return a different string (because one of the interpretation of the ambiguous specification make normalization non-idempotent). Fortunately, only a select few character sequence exhibit this problem, and none of them are expected to occur in natural languages (due to different linguistic uses of the involved characters). <p>A full discussion of the problem may be found at: <p><a href="http://www.unicode.org/review/pr-29.html">http://www.unicode.org/review/pr-29.html</a> <p>The PR29 functions below allow you to detect the problem sequence. So when would you want to use these functions? For most applications, such as those using Nameprep for IDN, this is likely only to be an interoperability problem. Thus, you may not want to care about it, as the character sequences will rarely occur naturally. However, if you are using a profile, such as SASLPrep, to process authentication tokens; authorization tokens; or passwords, there is a real danger that attackers may try to use the peculiarities in these strings to attack parts of your system. As only a small number of strings, and no naturally occurring strings, exhibit this problem, the conservative approach of rejecting the strings is recommended. If this approach is not used, you should instead verify that all parts of your system, that process the tokens and passwords, use a NFKC implementation that produce the same output for the same input. <p>Technically inclined readers may be interested in knowing more about the implementation aspects of the PR29 flaw.

The reason for this is that most systems encode character data in more than one character encoding, i.e., using <code>UTF-8</code> together with <code>ISO-8859-1</code> or <code>ISO-2022-JP</code>. This problem is likely to continue to exist until only one character encoding come out as the evolutionary winner, or (more likely, at least to some extents) forever. <p>The first step to troubleshooting character encoding problems with Libidn is to use the ‘<samp><span class="samp">--debug</span></samp>’ parameter to find out which character set encoding ‘<samp><span class="samp">idn</span></samp>’ believe your locale uses. <pre class="example"> jas@latte:~$ idn --debug --quiet "" system locale uses charset `UTF-8'. jas@latte:~$ </pre> <p>If it prints <code>ANSI_X3.4-1968</code> (i.e., <code>US-ASCII</code>), this indicate you have not configured your locale properly. To configure the locale, you can, for example, use ‘<samp><span class="samp">LANG=sv_SE.UTF-8; export LANG</span></samp>’ at a <code>/bin/sh</code> prompt, to set up your locale for a Swedish environment using <code>UTF-8</code> as the encoding. <p>Sometimes ‘<samp><span class="samp">idn</span></samp>’ appear to be unable to translate from your system locale into <code>UTF-8</code> (which is used internally), and you get an error like the following: <pre class="example"> jas@latte:~$ idn --quiet foo idn: could not convert from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8. jas@latte:~$ </pre> <p>The simplest explanation is that you haven't installed the ‘<samp><span class="samp">iconv</span></samp>’ conversion tools. You can find it as a standalone library in GNU Libiconv (<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/">http://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/</a>). On many GNU/Linux systems, this library is part of the system, but you may have to install additional packages (e.g., ‘<samp><span class="samp">glibc-locale</span></samp>’ for Debian) to be able to use it. <p>Another explanation is that the error is correct and you are feeding ‘<samp><span class="samp">idn</span></samp>’ invalid data. This can happen inadvertently if you are not careful with the character set encoding you use. For example, if your shell run in a <code>ISO-8859-1</code> environment, and you invoke ‘<samp><span class="samp">idn</span></samp>’ with the ‘<samp><span class="samp">CHARSET</span></samp>’ environment variable as follows, you will feed it <code>ISO-8859-1</code> characters but force it to believe they are <code>UTF-8</code>. Naturally this will lead to an error, unless the byte sequences happen to be valid <code>UTF-8</code>. Note that even if you don't get an error, the output may be incorrect in this situation, because <code>ISO-8859-1</code> and <code>UTF-8</code> does not in general encode the same characters as the same byte sequences. <pre class="example"> jas@latte:~$ idn --quiet --debug "" system locale uses charset `ISO-8859-1'. jas@latte:~$ CHARSET=UTF-8 idn --quiet --debug räksmörgås system locale uses charset `UTF-8'. input[0] = U+0072 input[1] = U+4af3 input[2] = U+006d input[3] = U+1b29e5 input[4] = U+0073 output[0] = U+0078 output[1] = U+006e output[2] = U+002d output[3] = U+002d output[4] = U+0072 output[5] = U+006d output[6] = U+0073 output[7] = U+002d output[8] = U+0068 output[9] = U+0069 output[10] = U+0036 output[11] = U+0064 output[12] = U+0035 output[13] = U+0039 output[14] = U+0037 output[15] = U+0035 output[16] = U+0035 output[17] = U+0032 output[18] = U+0061 xn--rms-hi6d597552a jas@latte:~$ </pre> <p>The sense moral here is to forget about ‘<samp><span class="samp">CHARSET</span></samp>’ (configure your locales properly instead) unless you know what you are doing, and if you want to use it, do it carefully, after verifying with ‘<samp><span class="samp">--debug</span></samp>’ that you get the desired results. <div class="node"> <a name="Emacs-API"></a> <p><hr> Next: <a rel="next" accesskey="n" href="#Java-API">Java API</a>, Previous: <a rel="previous" accesskey="p" href="#Invoking-idn">Invoking idn</a>, Up: <a rel="up" accesskey="u" href="#Top">Top</a> </div> <h2 class="chapter">11 Emacs API</h2> <p>Included in Libidn are <samp><span class="file">punycode.el</span></samp> and <samp><span class="file">idna.el</span></samp> that provides an Emacs Lisp API to (a limited set of) the Libidn API.

On behalf of the Unicode Consortium editorial committee, I would like to find out more information about the PR 29 fixes, if any, and functions in Libidn. Your implementation was listed in the text of PR29 as needing investigation, so I am following up on several implementations. The UTC has accepted the proposed fix to D2 as outlined in PR29, and a new draft of UAX #15 has been issued. I have looked at Libidn 0.5.8 (today), and there may still be a possible bug in NFKC.java and nfkc.c. ------------------------------------------------------ 1. In NFKC.java, this line in canonicalOrdering(): if (i > 0 && (last_cc == 0 \|\| last_cc != cc)) { should perhaps be changed to: if (i > 0 && (last_cc == 0 \|\| last_cc < cc)) { but I'm not sure of the sense of this comparison. ------------------------------------------------------ 2. In nfkc.c, function _g_utf8_normalize_wc() has this code: if (i > 0 && (last_cc == 0 \|\| last_cc != cc) && combine (wc_buffer[last_start], wc_buffer[i], &wc_buffer[last_start])) { This appears to have the same bug as the current Python implementation (in Python 2.3.4). The code should be checking, as per new rule D2 UAX #15 update, that the next combining character is the same or HIGHER than the current one. It now checks to see if it's non-zero and not equal. The above line(s) should perhaps be changed to: if (i > 0 && (last_cc == 0 \|\| last_cc < cc) && combine (wc_buffer[last_start], wc_buffer[i], &wc_buffer[last_start])) { but I'm not sure of the sense of the comparison (< or > or <=?) here. In the text of PR29, I will be marking Libidn as "needs change" and adding the version number that I checked. If any further change is made, please let me know the release version, and I'll update again.

Hello Rick. I believe the current behavior is intentional. Libidn do not aim to implement latest-and-greatest NFKC, it aim to implement the NFKC functionality required for StringPrep and IDN. As you may know, StringPrep/IDN reference Unicode 3.2.0, and explicitly says any later changes (which I consider PR29 as) do not apply. In fact, I believe that would I incorporate the changes suggested in PR29, I would in fact be violating the IDN specifications. Thanks for looking into the code and finding the place where the change could be made. I'll see if I can mention this in the manual somewhere, for technically interested readers. Regards, Simon </pre> <div class="node"> <a name="On-Label-Separators"></a> <p><hr> Next: <a rel="next" accesskey="n" href="#Copying-Information">Copying Information</a>, Previous: <a rel="previous" accesskey="p" href="#PR29-discussion">PR29 discussion</a>, Up: <a rel="up" accesskey="u" href="#Top">Top</a> </div> <h2 class="appendix">Appendix B On Label Separators</h2> <p>Some strings contains characters whose NFKC normalized form contain the ASCII dot (0x2E, “.”). Examples of these characters are U+2024 (ONE DOT LEADER) and U+248C (DIGIT FIVE FULL STOP). The strings have the interesting property that their IDNA ToASCII output will contain embedded dots. For example: <pre class="example"> ToASCII (hi U+248C com) = hi5.com ToASCII (räksmörgås U+2024 com) = xn--rksmrgs.com-l8as9u </pre> <p>This demonstrate the two general cases: The first where the ASCII dot is part of an output that do not begin with the IDN prefix <code>xn--</code>. The second example illustrate when the dot is part of IDN prefixed with <code>xn--</code>. <p>The input strings are, from the DNS point of view, a single label. The IDNA algorithm translate one label at a time. Thus, the output is expected to be only one label. What is important here is to make sure the DNS resolver receives the correct query. The DNS protocol does not use the dot to delimit labels on the wire, rather it uses length-value pairs. Thus the correct query would be for <code>{7}hi5.com</code> and <code>{22}xn--rksmrgs.com-l8as9u</code> respectively. <p>Some implementations <a rel="footnote" href="#fn-1" name="fnd-1"><sup>1</sup></a> have decided that these inputs strings are potentially confusing for the user. The string <code>hi U+248C com</code> looks like <code>hi5.com</code> on systems that support Unicode properly. These implementations do not follow RFC 3490. They yield: <pre class="example"> ToASCII (hi U+248C com) = hi5.com ToASCII (räksmörgås U+2024 com) = xn--rksmrgs-5wao1o.com </pre> <p>The DNS query they perform are <code>{3}hi5{3}com</code> and <code>{18}xn--rksmrgs-5wao1o{3}com</code> respectively. Arguably, this leads to a better user experience, and suggests that the IDNA specification is sub-optimal in this area. <h3 class="section">B.1 Recommended Workaround</h3> <p>It has been suggested to normalize the entire input string using NFKC before passing it to IDNA ToASCII. You may use <code>stringprep_utf8_nfkc_normalize</code> or <code>stringprep_ucs4_nfkc_normalize</code>. This appears to lead to similar behaviour as IE/Firefox, which would avoid the problem, but this needs to be confirmed. Feel free to discuss the issue with us. <p>Alternative workarounds are being considered. Eventually Libidn may implement a new flag to the <code>idna_*</code> functions that implements a recommended way to work around this problem. <div class="node"> <a name="Copying-Information"></a> <p><hr> Next: <a rel="next" accesskey="n" href="#Function-and-Variable-Index">Function and Variable Index</a>, Previous: <a rel="previous" accesskey="p" href="#On-Label-Separators">On Label Separators</a>, Up: <a rel="up" accesskey="u" href="#Top">Top</a> </div> <h2 class="appendix">Appendix C Copying Information</h2> <ul class="menu"> <li><a accesskey="1" href="#GNU-Free-Documentation-License">GNU Free Documentation License</a>: License for copying this manual. </ul> <div class="node"> <a name="GNU-Free-Documentation-License"></a> <p><hr> Up: <a rel="up" accesskey="u" href="#Copying-Information">Copying Information</a> </div> <h3 class="appendixsec">C.1 GNU Free Documentation License</h3> <p><a name="index-FDL_002c-GNU-Free-Documentation-License-128"></a> <!-- The GNU Free Documentation License. --> <div align="center">Version 1.3, 3 November 2008</div> <!-- This file is intended to be included within another document, --> <!-- hence no sectioning command or @node. --> <pre class="display"> Copyright © 2000, 2001, 2002, 2007, 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <a href="http://fsf.org/">http://fsf.org/</a> Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. </pre> <ol type=1 start=0> <li>PREAMBLE <p>The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other functional and useful document <dfn>free</dfn> in the sense of freedom: to assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, with or without modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially. Secondarily, this License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not being considered responsible for modifications made by others. <p>This License is a kind of “copyleft”, which means that derivative works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft license designed for free software. <p>We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free software, because free software needs free documentation: a free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference. <li>APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS <p>This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium, that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice grants a world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration, to use that work under the conditions stated herein. The “Document”, below, refers to any such manual or work. Any member of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as “you”. You accept the license if you copy, modify or distribute the work in a way requiring permission under copyright law. <p>A “Modified Version” of the Document means any work containing the Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with modifications and/or translated into another language. <p>A “Secondary Section” is a named appendix or a front-matter section of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding them. <p>The “Invariant Sections” are certain Secondary Sections whose titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice that says that the Document is released under this License. If a section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it is not allowed to be designated as Invariant. The Document may contain zero Invariant Sections. If the Document does not identify any Invariant Sections then there are none. <p>The “Cover Texts” are certain short passages of text that are listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that the Document is released under this License. A Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may be at most 25 words. <p>A “Transparent” copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy, represented in a format whose specification is available to the general public, that is suitable for revising the document straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of markup, has been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent. An image format is not Transparent if used for any substantial amount of text. A copy that is not “Transparent” is called “Opaque”. <p>Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification. Examples of transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG. Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally available, and the machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word processors for output purposes only. <p>The “Title Page” means, for a printed book, the title page itself, plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in formats which do not have any title page as such, “Title Page” means the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text. <p>The “publisher” means any person or entity that distributes copies of the Document to the public. <p>A section “Entitled XYZ” means a named subunit of the Document whose title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses following text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ stands for a specific section name mentioned below, such as “Acknowledgements”, “Dedications”, “Endorsements”, or “History”.) To “Preserve the Title” of such a section when you modify the Document means that it remains a section “Entitled XYZ” according to this definition. <p>The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice which states that this License applies to the Document. These Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and has no effect on the meaning of this License. <li>VERBATIM COPYING <p>You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3. <p>You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and you may publicly display copies. <li>COPYING IN QUANTITY <p>If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly have printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and visible. You may add other material on the covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in other respects. <p>If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent pages. <p>If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy a computer-network location from which the general network-using public has access to download using public-standard network protocols a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material. If you use the latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated location until at least one year after the last time you distribute an Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that edition to the public. <p>It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document. <li>MODIFICATIONS <p>You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version: <ol type=A start=1> <li>Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions (which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section of the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version if the original publisher of that version gives permission. <li>List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the Document (all of its principal authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they release you from this requirement. <li>State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the Modified Version, as the publisher. <li>Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document. <li>Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications adjacent to the other copyright notices. <li>Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below. <li>Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice. <li>Include an unaltered copy of this License. <li>Preserve the section Entitled “History”, Preserve its Title, and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If there is no section Entitled “History” in the Document, create one stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified Version as stated in the previous sentence. <li>Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise the network locations given in the Document for previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in the “History” section. You may omit a network location for a work that was published at least four years before the Document itself, or if the original publisher of the version it refers to gives permission. <li>For any section Entitled “Acknowledgements” or “Dedications”, Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section all the substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein. <li>Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles. <li>Delete any section Entitled “Endorsements”. Such a section may not be included in the Modified Version. <li>Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled “Endorsements” or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section. <li>Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers. </ol> <p>If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice. These titles must be distinct from any other section titles. <p>You may add a section Entitled “Endorsements”, provided it contains nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various parties—for example, statements of peer review or that the text has been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a standard. <p>You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of, you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit permission from the previous publisher that added the old one. <p>The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version. <li>COMBINING DOCUMENTS <p>You may combine the Document with other documents released under this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all their Warranty Disclaimers. <p>The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but different contents, make the title of each such section unique by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work. <p>In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled “History” in the various original documents, forming one section Entitled “History”; likewise combine any sections Entitled “Acknowledgements”, and any sections Entitled “Dedications”. You must delete all sections Entitled “Endorsements.” <li>COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS <p>You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects. <p>You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document. <li>AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS <p>A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an “aggregate” if the copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit. When the Document is included in an aggregate, this License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which are not themselves derivative works of the Document. <p>If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic form. Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket the whole aggregate. <li>TRANSLATION <p>Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special permission from their copyright holders, but you may include translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a translation of this License, and all the license notices in the Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also include the original English version of this License and the original versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a disagreement between the translation and the original version of this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will prevail. <p>If a section in the Document is Entitled “Acknowledgements”, “Dedications”, or “History”, the requirement (section 4) to Preserve its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the actual title. <li>TERMINATION <p>You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. <p>However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation. <p>Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after your receipt of the notice. <p>Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently reinstated, receipt of a copy of some or all of the same material does not give you any rights to use it. <li>FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE <p>The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See <a href="http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/">http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/</a>. <p>Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this License “or any later version” applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the Document specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of this License can be used, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you to choose that version for the Document. <li>RELICENSING <p>“Massive Multiauthor Collaboration Site” (or “MMC Site”) means any World Wide Web server that publishes copyrightable works and also provides prominent facilities for anybody to edit those works. A public wiki that anybody can edit is an example of such a server. A “Massive Multiauthor Collaboration” (or “MMC”) contained in the site means any set of copyrightable works thus published on the MMC site. <p>“CC-BY-SA” means the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 license published by Creative Commons Corporation, a not-for-profit corporation with a principal place of business in San Francisco, California, as well as future copyleft versions of that license published by that same organization. <p>“Incorporate” means to publish or republish a Document, in whole or in part, as part of another Document. <p>An MMC is “eligible for relicensing” if it is licensed under this License, and if all works that were first published under this License somewhere other than this MMC, and subsequently incorporated in whole or in part into the MMC, (1) had no cover texts or invariant sections, and (2) were thus incorporated prior to November 1, 2008. <p>The operator of an MMC Site may republish an MMC contained in the site under CC-BY-SA on the same site at any time before August 1, 2009, provided the MMC is eligible for relicensing. </ol> <h3 class="heading">ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents</h3> <p>To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of the License in the document and put the following copyright and license notices just after the title page: <pre class="smallexample"> Copyright (C) <var>year</var> <var>your name</var>. Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.3 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts. A copy of the license is included in the section entitled ``GNU Free Documentation License''. </pre> <p>If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover Texts, replace the “with<small class="dots">...</small>Texts.” line with this: <pre class="smallexample"> with the Invariant Sections being <var>list their titles</var>, with the Front-Cover Texts being <var>list</var>, and with the Back-Cover Texts being <var>list</var>. </pre> <p>If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the situation. <p>If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of free software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to permit their use in free software. <!-- Local Variables: --> <!-- ispell-local-pdict: "ispell-dict" --> <!-- End: --> <div class="node"> <a name="Function-and-Variable-Index"></a> <p><hr> Next: <a
