PApp::Recode - convert bytes from one charset to another
use PApp::Recode; # not auto-imported into .papp-files $converter = to_utf8 PApp::Recode "iso-8859-1"; $converter->("string");
This module creates conversion functions that enable you to convert text data from one character set (and/or encoding) to another.
Returns a boolean indicating wether the named charset is valid on this system (where "valid" is defined as "can be converted from/to UTF-8 using this module").
This class can be used to convert textual data between various encodings.
Returns a new conversion function (a code reference) that converts its argument from the source character set into the destination character set each time it is called (it does remember state, though. A call without arguments resets the state).
Perl's internal UTF-8-flag is ignored on input and not set on output.
Example: create a converter that converts UTF-8 into ascii, html-escaping any non-ascii characters:
new PApp::Recode "ascii", "utf-8", sub { sprintf "&#x%x;", $_[0] };
Similar to a call to new with the first argument equal to "utf-8". The returned conversion function will, however, forcefully set perl's UTF-8 flag on the returned scalar.
new
Similar to a call to new with the second argument equal to "utf-8". The returned conversion function will, however, upgrade its argument to UTF-8.
This is the class that actually implements character conversion. It should not be used directly.
Create a new encoding convert that encodes from fromcode to tocode, optionally invoking the fallback code reference for every character that is not representable in the target encoding.
fromcode
tocode
fallback
Convenience function that calls new and returns the converter.
Convert the given string. If reset is true, the internal multibyte state is reset before conversion.
reset
Reset the multibyte state.
Same as convert with reset set to true.
