NAME

PerlIO::utf8_strict − Fast and correct UTF−8 IO

VERSION

version 0.010

SYNOPSIS

open my $fh, '<:utf8_strict', $filename;

DESCRIPTION

This module provides a fast and correct UTF−8 PerlIO layer. Unlike perl’s default ":utf8" layer it checks the input for correctness.

LAYER ARGUMENTS

allow_noncharacters
allow_surrogates

EXPORT

PerlIO::utf8_strict exports no subroutines or symbols, just a perl layer "utf8_strict"

DIAGNOSTICS

Can’t decode ill-formed UTF−8 octet sequence <%s>

(F) Encountered an ill-formed UTF−8 octet sequence. <%s> contains a hexadecimal representation of the maximal subpart of the ill-formed subsequence.

Can’t interchange noncharacter code point U+%.4X

(F) Noncharacters is permanently reserved for internal use and that should never be interchanged. Noncharacters consist of the values U+nFFFE and U+nFFFF (where n is from 0 to 10ˆ16) and the values U+FDD0..U+FDEF.
