XMLSCRUB
XMLSCRUB scrubs the CHARACTER source buffer. It returns a size_t1 value that indicates the number of bytes that are written into the target buffer.
XMLSCRUB cleans the CHARACTER source buffer by:
- Replacing each character less than a blank except for
\t
,\n
,\r
with a blank. - Replacing carriage returns with

. - Replacing the following characters with corresponding strings
as follows:
Characters Strings "

'

- p
- Specifies the address of the target buffer.
- m
- Specifies the length in bytes of the target buffer. It must have a computational type and is converted to type size_t.
- q
- Specifies the address of the source buffer.
- n
- Specifies the length in bytes of the source buffer. It must have a computational type and is converted to type size_t.
If the address of the target buffer is zero, the number of bytes to be written is returned. If the target buffer is not large enough, a value of -1 is returned. If the target buffer is large enough, the number of bytes that is written to the buffer is returned.
