-
- =head1 SYNOPSIS
-
- use Encode;
-
- =head2 Table of Contents
-
- Encode consists of a collection of modules whose details are too big
- to fit in one document. This POD itself explains the top-level APIs
- and general topics at a glance. For other topics and more details,
- see the PODs below:

- --------------------------------------------------------
-
- =head1 DESCRIPTION
-
- The C<Encode> module provides the interfaces between Perl's strings
- and the rest of the system. Perl strings are sequences of
- B<characters>.
-
- The repertoire of characters that Perl can represent is at least that
- defined by the Unicode Consortium. On most platforms the ordinal
- values of the characters (as returned by C<ord(ch)>) is the "Unicode
- codepoint" for the character (the exceptions are those platforms where
- the legacy encoding is some variant of EBCDIC rather than a super-set
- of ASCII - see L<perlebcdic>).
-
- Traditionally, computer data has been moved around in 8-bit chunks
- often called "bytes". These chunks are also known as "octets" in
- networking standards. Perl is widely used to manipulate data of many
- types - not only strings of characters representing human or computer
- languages but also "binary" data being the machine's representation of
- numbers, pixels in an image - or just about anything.
-
- When Perl is processing "binary data", the programmer wants Perl to
- process "sequences of bytes". This is not a problem for Perl - as a
- byte has 256 possible values, it easily fits in Perl's much larger
- "logical character".
-
- =head2 TERMINOLOGY
-

-
- I<character>: a character in the range 0..(2**32-1) (or more).

- (A special case of a Perl character.)
-
- =item *
-
- I<octet>: 8 bits of data, with ordinal values 0..255
- (Term for bytes passed to or from a non-Perl context, e.g. a disk file.)

-
- =head1 PERL ENCODING API
-
- =over 2
-
- =item $octets = encode(ENCODING, $string [, CHECK])
-
- Encodes a string from Perl's internal form into I<ENCODING> and returns
- a sequence of octets. ENCODING can be either a canonical name or
- an alias. For encoding names and aliases, see L</"Defining Aliases">.
- For CHECK, see L</"Handling Malformed Data">.
-
- For example, to convert a string from Perl's internal format to
- iso-8859-1 (also known as Latin1),
-
- $octets = encode("iso-8859-1", $string);
-
- B<CAVEAT>: When you run C<$octets = encode("utf8", $string)>, then $octets
- B<may not be equal to> $string. Though they both contain the same data, the utf8 flag
- for $octets is B<always> off. When you encode anything, utf8 flag of
- the result is always off, even when it contains completely valid utf8
- string. See L</"The UTF-8 flag"> below.
-
- encode($valid_encoding, undef) is harmless but warns you for
- C<Use of uninitialized value in subroutine entry>.
- encode($valid_encoding, '') is harmless and warnless.
-
- =item $string = decode(ENCODING, $octets [, CHECK])
-
- Decodes a sequence of octets assumed to be in I<ENCODING> into Perl's
- internal form and returns the resulting string. As in encode(),
- ENCODING can be either a canonical name or an alias. For encoding names
- and aliases, see L</"Defining Aliases">. For CHECK, see
- L</"Handling Malformed Data">.
-
- For example, to convert ISO-8859-1 data to a string in Perl's internal format:
-
- $string = decode("iso-8859-1", $octets);
-
- B<CAVEAT>: When you run C<$string = decode("utf8", $octets)>, then $string
- B<may not be equal to> $octets. Though they both contain the same data,
- the utf8 flag for $string is on unless $octets entirely consists of
- ASCII data (or EBCDIC on EBCDIC machines). See L</"The UTF-8 flag">
- below.
-
- decode($valid_encoding, undef) is harmless but warns you for
- C<Use of uninitialized value in subroutine entry>.
- decode($valid_encoding, '') is harmless and warnless.
-
- =item [$length =] from_to($octets, FROM_ENC, TO_ENC [, CHECK])
-
- Converts B<in-place> data between two encodings. The data in $octets
- must be encoded as octets and not as characters in Perl's internal
- format. For example, to convert ISO-8859-1 data to Microsoft's CP1250 encoding:
-
- from_to($octets, "iso-8859-1", "cp1250");
-
- and to convert it back:
-
- from_to($octets, "cp1250", "iso-8859-1");
-
- Note that because the conversion happens in place, the data to be
- converted cannot be a string constant; it must be a scalar variable.
-
- from_to() returns the length of the converted string in octets on success, undef
- otherwise.
-
- B<CAVEAT>: The following operations look the same but are not quite so;
-
- from_to($data, "iso-8859-1", "utf8"); #1
- $data = decode("iso-8859-1", $data); #2
-
- Both #1 and #2 make $data consist of a completely valid UTF-8 string
- but only #2 turns utf8 flag on. #1 is equivalent to
-
- $data = encode("utf8", decode("iso-8859-1", $data));
-
- See L</"The UTF-8 flag"> below.
-
- =item $octets = encode_utf8($string);
-
- Equivalent to C<$octets = encode("utf8", $string);> The characters
- that comprise $string are encoded in Perl's internal format and the
- result is returned as a sequence of octets. All possible
- characters have a UTF-8 representation so this function cannot fail.
-
-
- =item $string = decode_utf8($octets [, CHECK]);
-
- equivalent to C<$string = decode("utf8", $octets [, CHECK])>.
- The sequence of octets represented by
- $octets is decoded from UTF-8 into a sequence of logical
- characters. Not all sequences of octets form valid UTF-8 encodings, so
- it is possible for this call to fail. For CHECK, see
- L</"Handling Malformed Data">.
-
- =back
-
- =head2 Listing available encodings
-
- use Encode;
- @list = Encode->encodings();
-
- Returns a list of the canonical names of the available encodings that
- are loaded. To get a list of all available encodings including the
- ones that are not loaded yet, say
-
- @all_encodings = Encode->encodings(":all");
-
- Or you can give the name of a specific module.
-
- @with_jp = Encode->encodings("Encode::JP");
-
- When "::" is not in the name, "Encode::" is assumed.
-
- @ebcdic = Encode->encodings("EBCDIC");
-
- To find out in detail which encodings are supported by this package,
- see L<Encode::Supported>.
-
- =head2 Defining Aliases
-
- To add a new alias to a given encoding, use:
-
- use Encode;
- use Encode::Alias;
- define_alias(newName => ENCODING);
-
- After that, newName can be used as an alias for ENCODING.
- ENCODING may be either the name of an encoding or an
- I<encoding object>
-
- But before you do so, make sure the alias is nonexistent with
- C<resolve_alias()>, which returns the canonical name thereof.
- i.e.
-
- Encode::resolve_alias("latin1") eq "iso-8859-1" # true
- Encode::resolve_alias("iso-8859-12") # false; nonexistent
- Encode::resolve_alias($name) eq $name # true if $name is canonical
-
- resolve_alias() does not need C<use Encode::Alias>; it can be
- exported via C<use Encode qw(resolve_alias)>.
-
- See L<Encode::Alias> for details.
-
- =head1 Encoding via PerlIO
-
- If your perl supports I<PerlIO> (which is the default), you can use a PerlIO layer to decode
- and encode directly via a filehandle. The following two examples
- are totally identical in their functionality.
-
- # via PerlIO
- open my $in, "<:encoding(shiftjis)", $infile or die;
- open my $out, ">:encoding(euc-jp)", $outfile or die;
- while(<$in>){ print $out $_; }
-
- # via from_to
- open my $in, "<", $infile or die;
- open my $out, ">", $outfile or die;
- while(<$in>){
- from_to($_, "shiftjis", "euc-jp", 1);
- print $out $_;
- }
-
- Unfortunately, it may be that encodings are PerlIO-savvy. You can check
- if your encoding is supported by PerlIO by calling the C<perlio_ok>
- method.
-
- Encode::perlio_ok("hz"); # False
- find_encoding("euc-cn")->perlio_ok; # True where PerlIO is available
-
- use Encode qw(perlio_ok); # exported upon request
- perlio_ok("euc-jp")
-
- Fortunately, all encodings that come with Encode core are PerlIO-savvy
- except for hz and ISO-2022-kr. For gory details, see L<Encode::Encoding> and L<Encode::PerlIO>.
-
- =head1 Handling Malformed Data
-
- =over 2
-
- The I<CHECK> argument is used as follows. When you omit it,
- the behaviour is the same as if you had passed a value of 0 for
- I<CHECK>.
-
- =item I<CHECK> = Encode::FB_DEFAULT ( == 0)
-
- If I<CHECK> is 0, (en|de)code will put a I<substitution character>
- in place of a malformed character. For UCM-based encodings,
- E<lt>subcharE<gt> will be used. For Unicode, the code point C<0xFFFD> is used.
- If the data is supposed to be UTF-8, an optional lexical warning
- (category utf8) is given.
-
- =item I<CHECK> = Encode::FB_CROAK ( == 1)
-
- If I<CHECK> is 1, methods will die on error immediately with an error
- message. Therefore, when I<CHECK> is set to 1, you should trap the
- fatal error with eval{} unless you really want to let it die on error.
-
- =item I<CHECK> = Encode::FB_QUIET
-
- If I<CHECK> is set to Encode::FB_QUIET, (en|de)code will immediately
- return the portion of the data that has been processed so far when
- an error occurs. The data argument will be overwritten with
- everything after that point (that is, the unprocessed part of data).
- This is handy when you have to call decode repeatedly in the case
- where your source data may contain partial multi-byte character
- sequences, for example because you are reading with a fixed-width
- buffer. Here is some sample code that does exactly this:
-
- my $data = ''; my $utf8 = '';
- while(defined(read $fh, $buffer, 256)){
- # buffer may end in a partial character so we append
- $data .= $buffer;
- $utf8 .= decode($encoding, $data, Encode::FB_QUIET);
- # $data now contains the unprocessed partial character
- }
-
- =item I<CHECK> = Encode::FB_WARN
-
- This is the same as above, except that it warns on error. Handy when
- you are debugging the mode above.
-
- =item perlqq mode (I<CHECK> = Encode::FB_PERLQQ)
-
- =item HTML charref mode (I<CHECK> = Encode::FB_HTMLCREF)
-
- =item XML charref mode (I<CHECK> = Encode::FB_XMLCREF)
-
- For encodings that are implemented by Encode::XS, CHECK ==
- Encode::FB_PERLQQ turns (en|de)code into C<perlqq> fallback mode.
-
- When you decode, C<\xI<HH>> will be inserted for a malformed character,
- where I<HH> is the hex representation of the octet that could not be
- decoded to utf8. And when you encode, C<\x{I<HHHH>}> will be inserted,
- where I<HHHH> is the Unicode ID of the character that cannot be found
- in the character repertoire of the encoding.
-
- HTML/XML character reference modes are about the same, in place of
- C<\x{I<HHHH>}>, HTML uses C<I<NNNN>>; where I<NNNN> is a decimal digit and
- XML uses C<I<HHHH>>; where I<HHHH> is the hexadecimal digit.
-
- =item The bitmask
-
- These modes are actually set via a bitmask. Here is how the FB_XX
- constants are laid out. You can import the FB_XX constants via
- C<use Encode qw(:fallbacks)>; you can import the generic bitmask
- constants via C<use Encode qw(:fallback_all)>.
-
- FB_DEFAULT FB_CROAK FB_QUIET FB_WARN FB_PERLQQ
- DIE_ON_ERR 0x0001 X
- WARN_ON_ERR 0x0002 X
- RETURN_ON_ERR 0x0004 X X
- LEAVE_SRC 0x0008
- PERLQQ 0x0100 X
- HTMLCREF 0x0200
- XMLCREF 0x0400
-
- =head2 Unimplemented fallback schemes
-
- In the future, you will be able to use a code reference to a callback
- function for the value of I<CHECK> but its API is still undecided.
-
- The fallback scheme does not work on EBCDIC platforms.
-
- =head1 Defining Encodings
-
- To define a new encoding, use:
-
- use Encode qw(define_encoding);
- define_encoding($object, 'canonicalName' [, alias...]);
-
- I<canonicalName> will be associated with I<$object>. The object
- should provide the interface described in L<Encode::Encoding>.
- If more than two arguments are provided then additional
- arguments are taken as aliases for I<$object>.
-
- See L<Encode::Encoding> for more details.
-
- =head1 The UTF-8 flag
-
- Before the introduction of utf8 support in perl, The C<eq> operator
- just compared the strings represented by two scalars. Beginning with
- perl 5.8, C<eq> compares two strings with simultaneous consideration
- of I<the utf8 flag>. To explain why we made it so, I will quote page
- 402 of C<Programming Perl, 3rd ed.>
-
- =over 2
-
- =item Goal #1:
-
- Old byte-oriented programs should not spontaneously break on the old
- byte-oriented data they used to work on.
-
- =item Goal #2:
-
- Old byte-oriented programs should magically start working on the new
- character-oriented data when appropriate.
-
- =item Goal #3:
-
- Programs should run just as fast in the new character-oriented mode
- as in the old byte-oriented mode.
-
- =item Goal #4:
-
- Perl should remain one language, rather than forking into a
- byte-oriented Perl and a character-oriented Perl.
-
- =back
-
- Back when C<Programming Perl, 3rd ed.> was written, not even Perl 5.6.0
- was born and many features documented in the book remained
- unimplemented for a long time. Perl 5.8 corrected this and the introduction
- of the UTF-8 flag is one of them. You can think of this perl notion as of a
- byte-oriented mode (utf8 flag off) and a character-oriented mode (utf8
- flag on).
-
- Here is how Encode takes care of the utf8 flag.
-
- =over 2
-
- =item *
-
- When you encode, the resulting utf8 flag is always off.
-
- =item
-
- When you decode, the resulting utf8 flag is on unless you can
- unambiguously represent data. Here is the definition of
- dis-ambiguity.
-
- After C<$utf8 = decode('foo', $octet);>,
-
- When $octet is... The utf8 flag in $utf8 is
- ---------------------------------------------
- In ASCII only (or EBCDIC only) OFF
- In ISO-8859-1 ON
- In any other Encoding ON
- ---------------------------------------------
-
- As you see, there is one exception, In ASCII. That way you can assue
- Goal #1. And with Encode Goal #2 is assumed but you still have to be
- careful in such cases mentioned in B<CAVEAT> paragraphs.
-
- This utf8 flag is not visible in perl scripts, exactly for the same
- reason you cannot (or you I<don't have to>) see if a scalar contains a
- string, integer, or floating point number. But you can still peek
- and poke these if you will. See the section below.
-
- =back
-
- =head2 Messing with Perl's Internals
-
- The following API uses parts of Perl's internals in the current
- implementation. As such, they are efficient but may change.
-
- =over 2
-
- =item is_utf8(STRING [, CHECK])
-
- [INTERNAL] Tests whether the UTF-8 flag is turned on in the STRING.
- If CHECK is true, also checks the data in STRING for being well-formed
- UTF-8. Returns true if successful, false otherwise.
-
- =item _utf8_on(STRING)
-
- [INTERNAL] Turns on the UTF-8 flag in STRING. The data in STRING is
- B<not> checked for being well-formed UTF-8. Do not use unless you
- B<know> that the STRING is well-formed UTF-8. Returns the previous
- state of the UTF-8 flag (so please don't treat the return value as
- indicating success or failure), or C<undef> if STRING is not a string.
-
- =item _utf8_off(STRING)
-
- [INTERNAL] Turns off the UTF-8 flag in STRING. Do not use frivolously.
- Returns the previous state of the UTF-8 flag (so please don't treat the
- return value as indicating success or failure), or C<undef> if STRING is
- not a string.
