Module: UTF8Encoding::ForceBinary

Included in:
UTF8Encoding
Defined in:
lib/ndr_support/utf8_encoding/force_binary.rb

Overview

Allows any supported object to have any high-ascii string content to be force-encoded from UTF-8 to BINARY (/ASCII-8BIT). This ensures that any serialisation to YAML, using Psych, can be stored in other encodings. (Psych by default emits UTF-8 YAML, which might not survive being stored in a Windows-1252 database, for example.)
