    // Gjs wrapper for g_ucs4_to_utf16()
}
  

Convert a string from UCS-4 to UTF-16. A 0 character will be added to the result after the converted text.

str

a UCS-4 encoded string

len

the maximum length (number of characters) of str to use. If len < 0, then the string is nul-terminated.

items_read

location to store number of bytes read, or null. If an error occurs then the index of the invalid input is stored here.

items_written

location to store number of #gunichar2 written, or null. The value stored here does not include the trailing 0.

Returns

a pointer to a newly allocated UTF-16 string. This value must be freed with GLib.free. If an error occurs, null will be returned and @error set.
