GNU Libidn is an implementation of the Stringprep, Punycode,
|
||
|
and IDNA specifications defined by the IETF Internationalized
|
||
|
Domain Names (IDN) working group. It is used to prepare
|
||
|
internationalized strings (such as domain name labels,
|
||
|
usernames, and passwords) in order to increase the likelihood
|
||
|
that string input and string comparison work in ways that make
|
||
|
sense for typical users throughout the world. The library
|
||
|
contains a generic Stringprep implementation that does Unicode
|
||
|
3.2 NFKC normalization, mapping and prohibition of characters,
|
||
|
and bidirectional character handling. Profiles for iSCSI,
|
||
|
Kerberos 5, Nameprep, SASL, and XMPP are included. Punycode and
|
||
|
ASCII Compatible Encoding (ACE) via IDNA are supported.
