QUESTION
Sometimes I have to parse text files with various encodings, I wonder if the upcoming standard will bring some tools for this because I'm not very happy with my current solution. I'm not even sure if this is the right approach, however I define a functor template to extract a character from stream:

QUESTION
I'm trying to run a simple test whereby I want to have differently formatted binary strings and print them out. In fact, I'm trying to investigate a problem whereby sprintf
cannot deal with a wide-character string passed in for the placeholder %s
.
In this case, the binary string shall just contain the Cyrillic "д" (because it's above ISO-8859-1)
The code below works when I use the character directly in the source.
But nothing that passes through pack
works.
- For the UTF-8 case, I need to set the UTF-8 flag on the string
$ch
, but how. - The UCS-2 case fails, and I suppose it's because there is no way for Perl UCS-2 from ISO-8859-1, so that test is probably bollocks, right?
The code:

Your calls to pack
are incorrect
Each H
represents one hex digit.
QUESTION
I have a requirement to determine if a very large number of characters of unknown encoding are utf8. I'm using ActiveSupport #is_utf8?, however it is quite slow because it duplicates the string. I am wondering if I can put a guard clause using #ascii_only. My testing show that this will improve the performance of my utf8? method.
Original method:
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Feb-15 at 03:46Is there a character that will return false for ActiveSupport's String#is_utf8? [and] true for String#ascii_only?
According to the definition of UTF-8, there is no such character.
The first 128 characters of Unicode .. correspond one-to-one with ASCII (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8)
But, do these functions respect this definition? Yes, they do. :)
ascii_only?
returns true only for characters 0..127
, regardless of which encoding we specify.
