/* If the target program uses a different character set than the host,
GDB has some support for translating between the two; GDB converts
characters and strings to the host character set before displaying
them, and converts characters and strings appearing in expressions
entered by the user to the target character set.
At the moment, GDB only supports single-byte, stateless character
sets. This includes the ISO-8859 family (ASCII extended with
accented characters, and (I think) Cyrillic, for European
languages), and the EBCDIC family (used on IBM's mainframes).
Unfortunately, it excludes many Asian scripts, the fixed- and
variable-width Unicode encodings, and other desireable things.
Patches are welcome! (For example, it would be nice if the Java
string support could simply get absorbed into some more general
multi-byte encoding support.)
Furthermore, GDB's code pretty much assumes that the host character
set is some superset of ASCII; there are plenty if ('0' + n)
expressions and the like.
When the `iconv' library routine supports a character set meeting
the requirements above, it's easy to plug an entry into GDB's table
that uses iconv to handle the details. */

result is owned by the charset module; the caller should not free
it. */

characters, for example.
The following functions allow GDB to parse and print control
characters in a character-set-independent way. They are both
language-specific (to C and C++) and character-set-specific.
Putting them here is a compromise. */
/* If the target character TARGET_CHAR have a backslash escape in the
C language (i.e., a character like 'n' or 't'), return the host
character string that should follow the backslash. Otherwise,
