/**

 * g_converter_convert:

 * @converter: a #GConverter.

 * @inbuf: (array length=inbuf_size) (element-type guint8): the buffer

 *         containing the data to convert.

 * @inbuf_size: the number of bytes in @inbuf

 * @outbuf: (element-type guint8) (array length=outbuf_size): a buffer to write

 *    converted data in.

 * @outbuf_size: the number of bytes in @outbuf, must be at least one

 * @flags: a #GConverterFlags controlling the conversion details

 * @bytes_read: (out): will be set to the number of bytes read from @inbuf on success

 * @bytes_written: (out): will be set to the number of bytes written to @outbuf on success

 * @error: location to store the error occurring, or %NULL to ignore

 *

 * This is the main operation used when converting data. It is to be called

 * multiple times in a loop, and each time it will do some work, i.e.

 * producing some output (in @outbuf) or consuming some input (from @inbuf) or

 * both. If its not possible to do any work an error is returned.

 *

 * Note that a single call may not consume all input (or any input at all).

 * Also a call may produce output even if given no input, due to state stored

 * in the converter producing output.

 *

 * If any data was either produced or consumed, and then an error happens, then

 * only the successful conversion is reported and the error is returned on the

 * next call.

 *

 * A full conversion loop involves calling this method repeatedly, each time

 * giving it new input and space output space. When there is no more input

 * data after the data in @inbuf, the flag %G_CONVERTER_INPUT_AT_END must be set.

 * The loop will be (unless some error happens) returning %G_CONVERTER_CONVERTED

 * each time until all data is consumed and all output is produced, then

 * %G_CONVERTER_FINISHED is returned instead. Note, that %G_CONVERTER_FINISHED

 * may be returned even if %G_CONVERTER_INPUT_AT_END is not set, for instance

 * in a decompression converter where the end of data is detectable from the

 * data (and there might even be other data after the end of the compressed data).

 *

 * When some data has successfully been converted @bytes_read and is set to

 * the number of bytes read from @inbuf, and @bytes_written is set to indicate

 * how many bytes was written to @outbuf. If there are more data to output

 * or consume (i.e. unless the %G_CONVERTER_INPUT_AT_END is specified) then

 * %G_CONVERTER_CONVERTED is returned, and if no more data is to be output

 * then %G_CONVERTER_FINISHED is returned.

 *

 * On error %G_CONVERTER_ERROR is returned and @error is set accordingly.

 * Some errors need special handling:

 *

 * %G_IO_ERROR_NO_SPACE is returned if there is not enough space

 * to write the resulting converted data, the application should

 * call the function again with a larger @outbuf to continue.

 *

 * %G_IO_ERROR_PARTIAL_INPUT is returned if there is not enough

 * input to fully determine what the conversion should produce,

 * and the %G_CONVERTER_INPUT_AT_END flag is not set. This happens for

 * example with an incomplete multibyte sequence when converting text,

 * or when a regexp matches up to the end of the input (and may match

 * further input). It may also happen when @inbuf_size is zero and

 * there is no more data to produce.

 *

 * When this happens the application should read more input and then

 * call the function again. If further input shows that there is no

 * more data call the function again with the same data but with

 * the %G_CONVERTER_INPUT_AT_END flag set. This may cause the conversion

 * to finish as e.g. in the regexp match case (or, to fail again with

 * %G_IO_ERROR_PARTIAL_INPUT in e.g. a charset conversion where the

 * input is actually partial).

 *

 * After g_converter_convert() has returned %G_CONVERTER_FINISHED the

 * converter object is in an invalid state where its not allowed

 * to call g_converter_convert() anymore. At this time you can only

 * free the object or call g_converter_reset() to reset it to the

 * initial state.

 *

 * If the flag %G_CONVERTER_FLUSH is set then conversion is modified

 * to try to write out all internal state to the output. The application

 * has to call the function multiple times with the flag set, and when

 * the available input has been consumed and all internal state has

 * been produced then %G_CONVERTER_FLUSHED (or %G_CONVERTER_FINISHED if

 * really at the end) is returned instead of %G_CONVERTER_CONVERTED.

 * This is somewhat similar to what happens at the end of the input stream,

 * but done in the middle of the data.

 *

 * This has different meanings for different conversions. For instance

 * in a compression converter it would mean that we flush all the

 * compression state into output such that if you uncompress the

 * compressed data you get back all the input data. Doing this may

 * make the final file larger due to padding though. Another example

 * is a regexp conversion, where if you at the end of the flushed data

 * have a match, but there is also a potential longer match. In the

 * non-flushed case we would ask for more input, but when flushing we

 * treat this as the end of input and do the match.

 *

 * Flushing is not always possible (like if a charset converter flushes

 * at a partial multibyte sequence). Converters are supposed to try

 * to produce as much output as possible and then return an error

 * (typically %G_IO_ERROR_PARTIAL_INPUT).

 *

 * Returns: a #GConverterResult, %G_CONVERTER_ERROR on error.

 *

 * Since: 2.24
