Rewind to the future: starting from perl 5.8.0 with the B<encoding>
pragma, you can write your script in any encoding you like (so long
as the C<Encode> module supports it) and still enjoy Unicode support.
+This pragma achieves that by doing the following:
+
+=over
+
+=item *
+
+Internally converts all literals (C<q//,qq//,qr//,qw///, qx//>) from
+the encoding specified to utf8. In Perl 5.8.1 and later, literals in
+C<tr///> and C<DATA> pseudo-filehandle are also converted.
+
+=item *
+
+Changing PerlIO layers of C<STDIN> and C<STDOUT> to the encoding
+ specified.
+
+=back
+
+=head2 Literal Conversions
+
You can write code in EUC-JP as follows:
my $Rakuda = "\xF1\xD1\xF1\xCC"; # Camel in Kanji
my $Rakuda = "\x{99F1}\x{99DD}"; # two Unicode Characters
s/\bCamel\b/$Rakuda/;
-The B<encoding> pragma also modifies the filehandle disciplines of
+=head2 PerlIO layers for C<STD(IN|OUT)>
+
+The B<encoding> pragma also modifies the filehandle layers of
STDIN and STDOUT to the specified encoding. Therefore,
use encoding "euc-jp";
You can override this by giving extra arguments; see below.
+=head2 Implicit upgrading for byte strings
+
+By default, if strings operating under byte semantics and strings
+with Unicode character data are concatenated, the new string will
+be created by decoding the byte strings as I<ISO 8859-1 (Latin-1)>.
+
+The B<encoding> pragma changes this to use the specified encoding
+instead. For example:
+
+ use encoding 'utf8';
+ my $string = chr(20000); # a Unicode string
+ utf8::encode($string); # now it's a UTF-8 encoded byte string
+ # concatenate with another Unicode string
+ print length($string . chr(20000));
+
+Will print C<2>, because C<$string> is upgraded as UTF-8. Without
+C<use encoding 'utf8';>, it will print C<4> instead, since C<$string>
+is three octets when interpreted as Latin-1.
+
+=head1 FEATURES THAT REQUIRE 5.8.1
+
+Some of the features offered by this pragma requires perl 5.8.1. Most
+of these are done by Inaba Hiroto. Any other features and changes
+are good for 5.8.0.
+
+=over
+
+=item "NON-EUC" doublebyte encodings
+
+Because perl needs to parse script before applying this pragma, such
+encodings as Shift_JIS and Big-5 that may contain '\' (BACKSLASH;
+\x5c) in the second byte fails because the second byte may
+accidentally escape the quoting character that follows. Perl 5.8.1
+or later fixes this problem.
+
+=item tr//
+
+C<tr//> was overlooked by Perl 5 porters when they released perl 5.8.0
+See the section below for details.
+
+=item DATA pseudo-filehandle
+
+Another feature that was overlooked was C<DATA>.

+
+Also note that non-STD file handles remain unaffected. Use C<use

=item use encoding I<ENCNAME> Filter=E<gt>1;
This turns the encoding pragma into a source filter. While the
default approach just decodes interpolated literals (in qq() and
qr()), this will apply a source filter to the entire source code. See

is a single Han ideograph) work, you still need to write your script
in UTF-8 -- or use a source filter. That's what 'Filter=>1' does.
-
What does this mean? Your source code behaves as if it is written in
UTF-8 with 'use utf8' in effect. So even if your editor only supports
Shift_JIS, for example, you can still try examples in Chapter 15 of
B<use encoding> can appear as many times as you want in a given script.
The multiple use of this pragma is discouraged.
-Because of this nature, the use of this pragma inside the module is
-strongly discouraged (because the influence of this pragma lasts not
-only for the module but the script that uses). But if you have to,
-make sure you say C<no encoding> at the end of the module so you
-contain the influence of the pragma within the module.
+By the same reason, the use this pragma inside modules is also
+discouraged (though not as strongly discouranged as the case above.
+See below).
+
+If you still have to write a module with this pragma, be very careful
+of the load order. See the codes below;
+
+ # called module
+ package Module_IN_BAR;
+ use encoding "bar";
+ # stuff in "bar" encoding here
+ 1;
+
+ # caller script
+ use encoding "foo"
+ use Module_IN_BAR;
+ # surprise! use encoding "bar" is in effect.
+
+The best way to avoid this oddity is to use this pragma RIGHT AFTER
+other modules are loaded. i.e.
+
+ use Module_IN_BAR;
+ use encoding "foo";
=head2 DO NOT MIX MULTIPLE ENCODINGS
So feel free to put your strings in your encoding in quotes and
regexes.
-=head2 format doesn't work well
-
-This pragma doesn't work well with format because PerlIO does not
-get along very well with it. When format contains non-ascii
-characters it prints funny or gets "wide character warnings".
-To understand it, try the code below.
-
- # Save this one in utf8
- # replace *non-ascii* with a non-ascii string
- my $camel;
- format STDOUT =
- *non-ascii*@>>>>>>>
- $camel
- .
- $camel = "*non-ascii*";
- binmode(STDOUT=>':encoding(utf8)'); # bang!
- write; # funny
- print $camel, "\n"; # fine
-
-Without binmode this happens to work but without binmode, print()
-fails instead of write().
-
-At any rate, the very use of format is questionable when it comes to
-unicode characters since you have to consider such things as character
-width (i.e. double-width for ideographs) and directions (i.e. BIDI for
-Arabic and Hebrew).
