SYNOPSIS
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 | use PerlIO::encoding;open($f, "<:encoding(foo)", "infoo");open($f, ">:encoding(bar)", "outbar");use Encode qw(:fallbacks);$PerlIO::encoding::fallback = FB_PERLQQ; |
DESCRIPTION
This PerlIO layer opens a filehandle with a transparent encoding filter.
On input, it converts the bytes expected to be in the specified character set and encoding to Perl string data (Unicode and Perl's internal Unicode encoding, UTF-8). On output, it converts Perl string data into the specified character set and encoding.
When the layer is pushed, the current value of $PerlIO::encoding::fallback is saved and used as the CHECK argument when calling the Encode methods encode() and decode().
