Instance Method Details

#destination_encoding ⇒ String

Returns the destination encoding as an encoding object.

Returns:




# File 'transcode.c'

static VALUE
ecerr_destination_encoding(VALUE self)
{
    return rb_attr_get(self, rb_intern("destination_encoding"));
}

#destination_encoding_name ⇒ String

Returns the destination encoding name as a string.

Returns:




# File 'transcode.c'

static VALUE
ecerr_destination_encoding_name(VALUE self)
{
    return rb_attr_get(self, rb_intern("destination_encoding_name"));
}

#error_bytes ⇒ String

Returns the discarded bytes when Encoding::InvalidByteSequenceError occurs.

ec = Encoding::Converter.new("EUC-JP", "ISO-8859-1")
begin
  ec.convert("abc\xA1\xFFdef")
rescue Encoding::InvalidByteSequenceError
  p $!      #=> #<Encoding::InvalidByteSequenceError: "\xA1" followed by "\xFF" on EUC-JP>
  puts $!.error_bytes.dump          #=> "\xA1"
  puts $!.readagain_bytes.dump      #=> "\xFF"
end

Returns:




# File 'transcode.c'

static VALUE
ecerr_error_bytes(VALUE self)
{
    return rb_attr_get(self, rb_intern("error_bytes"));
}

#incomplete_input? ⇒ Boolean

Returns true if the invalid byte sequence error is caused by premature end of string.

ec = Encoding::Converter.new("EUC-JP", "ISO-8859-1")

begin
  ec.convert("abc\xA1z")
rescue Encoding::InvalidByteSequenceError
  p $!      #=> #<Encoding::InvalidByteSequenceError: "\xA1" followed by "z" on EUC-JP>
  p $!.incomplete_input?    #=> false
end

begin
  ec.convert("abc\xA1")
  ec.finish
rescue Encoding::InvalidByteSequenceError
  p $!      #=> #<Encoding::InvalidByteSequenceError: incomplete "\xA1" on EUC-JP>
  p $!.incomplete_input?    #=> true
end

Returns:

  • (Boolean) 



# File 'transcode.c'

static VALUE
ecerr_incomplete_input(VALUE self)
{
    return rb_attr_get(self, rb_intern("incomplete_input"));
}

#readagain_bytes ⇒ String

Returns the bytes to be read again when Encoding::InvalidByteSequenceError occurs.

Returns:




# File 'transcode.c'

static VALUE
ecerr_readagain_bytes(VALUE self)
{
    return rb_attr_get(self, rb_intern("readagain_bytes"));
}

#source_encoding ⇒ Encoding

Returns the source encoding as an encoding object.

Note that the result may not be equal to the source encoding of the encoding converter if the conversion has multiple steps.

ec = Encoding::Converter.new("ISO-8859-1", "EUC-JP") # ISO-8859-1 -> UTF-8 -> EUC-JP
begin
  ec.convert("\xa0") # NO-BREAK SPACE, which is available in UTF-8 but not in EUC-JP.
rescue Encoding::UndefinedConversionError
  p $!.source_encoding              #=> #<Encoding:UTF-8>
  p $!.destination_encoding         #=> #<Encoding:EUC-JP>
  p $!.source_encoding_name         #=> "UTF-8"
  p $!.destination_encoding_name    #=> "EUC-JP"
end

Returns:




# File 'transcode.c'

static VALUE
ecerr_source_encoding(VALUE self)
{
    return rb_attr_get(self, rb_intern("source_encoding"));
}

#source_encoding_name ⇒ String

Returns the source encoding name as a string.

Returns:




# File 'transcode.c'

static VALUE
ecerr_source_encoding_name(VALUE self)
{
    return rb_attr_get(self, rb_intern("source_encoding_name"));
}
