//! InChI-to-InChI conversion via the native `GetINCHIfromINCHI` entry point.

use crate::error::Result;
use crate::options::Options;
use crate::output::InchiOutput;

/// Re-derives an InChI from an existing InChI string.
///
/// This is the programmatic form of the command-line `-InChI2InChI` option: it
/// parses the input InChI and regenerates it, optionally under different
/// [`Options`]. Common uses are normalizing a third-party InChI, or converting a
/// standard InChI into a non-standard one (e.g. with `FixedH` or `SUU`).
///
/// It is also the conversion the library performs internally for the strict
/// mode of [`check_inchi`](crate::check_inchi).
///
/// # Errors
///
/// Returns [`InchiError::Failed`](crate::InchiError::Failed) if the input is
/// not a usable InChI, [`InchiError::EmptyResult`](crate::InchiError::EmptyResult)
/// if conversion yields nothing, and
/// [`InchiError::InteriorNul`](crate::InchiError::InteriorNul) if either string
/// contains a NUL byte.
///
/// ```
/// use inchi::{inchi_to_inchi};
///
/// // Re-deriving a standard InChI with default options reproduces it.
/// let out = inchi_to_inchi("InChI=1S/CH4/h1H4", ())?;
/// assert_eq!(out.inchi(), "InChI=1S/CH4/h1H4");
/// # Ok::<(), inchi::InchiError>(())
