[xml] Encoding - from what to UTF8 ??

[Remy HAREL <rharel ext rd francetelecom com>]

Hi folks,

  I'm currently building xmltrees with libxml2 from text files using 
differents encodings.

  In fact, the main part is latin-1 to UTF8, and I know libxml2 
provides a function to convert a source text from latin-1 to UTF8.

  Yet I also use many others source files encoded with many differents 
encodings :

iso-8859-X ( where X = 1, 2, 5, 6, 14, 15 )
cp1256
gb23xx
Koi8R
cpXXXX ( can't remember the exact name, but it corresponds to Russian ).

  So, my question is "does libxml2 provide functions to convert a 
source text from one of these languages to UTF8, or there is a simple 
way to do that ?"

 Thanks for not asking why I use all of thoses, I have to because of a 
customer constraint.

 Any feedback would be appreciated,

 Best regards,
