-Encode - character encodings
-
-=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".
-

-=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.
-
-If the $string is C<undef> then C<undef> is returned.
-
-=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.
-
-If the $string is C<undef> then C<undef> is returned.
-
-=item [$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($octets, "cp1250", "iso-8859-1");
-
-Note that because the conversion happens in place, the data to be
-converted cannot be a string constant; it must be a scalar variable.
-
-from_to() returns the length of the converted string in octets on
-success, I<undef> on error.
-
-B<CAVEAT>: The following operations look the same but are not quite so;
-
- from_to($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
-
-The optional I<CHECK> argument tells Encode what to do when it
-encounters malformed data. Without CHECK, Encode::FB_DEFAULT ( == 0 )
-is assumed.
-
-As of version 2.12 Encode supports coderef values for CHECK. See below.
-
-=over 2
-
-=item B<NOTE:> Not all encoding support this feature
-
-Some encodings ignore I<CHECK> argument. For example,
-L<Encode::Unicode> ignores I<CHECK> and it always croaks on error.
-
-=back
-
-Now here is the list of I<CHECK> values available
-
-=over 2
-
-=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. When you encode, E<lt>subcharE<gt>
-will be used. When you decode 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
-error with eval{} unless you really want to let it die.
-
-=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,
-(i.e. you are reading with a fixed-width buffer). Here is a sample
-code that does exactly this:
-
- my $buffer = ''; my $string = '';
- while(read $fh, $buffer, 256, length($buffer)){
- $string .= decode($encoding, $buffer, Encode::FB_QUIET);
- # $buffer 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<NNN>;> where I<NNN> is a decimal number and
-XML uses C<&#xI<HHHH>;> where I<HHHH> is the hexadecimal number.
-
-In Encode 2.10 or later, C<LEAVE_SRC> is also implied.
-
-=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 X
- PERLQQ 0x0100 X
- HTMLCREF 0x0200
- XMLCREF 0x0400
-
-=back
-
-=head2 coderef for CHECK
-
-As of Encode 2.12 CHECK can also be a code reference which takes the
-ord value of unmapped caharacter as an argument and returns a string
-that represents the fallback character. For instance,
-
- $ascii = encode("ascii", $utf8, sub{ sprintf "<U+%04X>", shift });
-
-Acts like FB_PERLQQ but E<lt>U+I<XXXX>E<gt> is used instead of
-\x{I<XXXX>}.
-
-=head1 Defining Encodings
-
-To define a new encoding, use:
-
- use Encode qw(define_encoding);
- define_encoding($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 assume
-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.

-
-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.
-
-As of perl 5.8.1, L<utf8> also has utf8::is_utf8().
-
-=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.

-=head1 UTF-8 vs. utf8
-
- ....We now view strings not as sequences of bytes, but as sequences
- of numbers in the range 0 .. 2**32-1 (or in the case of 64-bit
- computers, 0 .. 2**64-1) -- Programming Perl, 3rd ed.
-
-That has been the perl's notion of UTF-8 but official UTF-8 is more
-strict; Its ranges is much narrower (0 .. 10FFFF), some sequences are
-not allowed (i.e. Those used in the surrogate pair, 0xFFFE, et al).
-
-Now that is overruled by Larry Wall himself.

-Do you copy? As of Perl 5.8.7, B<UTF-8> means strict, official UTF-8
-while B<utf8> means liberal, lax, version thereof. And Encode version
-2.10 or later thus groks the difference between C<UTF-8> and C"utf8".

- encode("utf8", "\x{FFFF_FFFF}", 1); # okay

-C<UTF-8> in Encode is actually a canonical name for C<utf-8-strict>.
-Yes, the hyphen between "UTF" and "8" is important. Without it Encode
-goes "liberal"
-
- find_encoding("UTF-8")->name # is 'utf-8-strict'
- find_encoding("utf-8")->name # ditto. names are case insensitive
- find_encoding("utf8")->name # ditto. "_" are treated as "-"
- find_encoding("UTF8")->name # is 'utf8'.
