This module converts strings from and to 2-byte Unicode UCS2 format.
|
|
All mappings happen via 2 byte UTF16 encodings, not via 1 byte UTF8
|
|
encoding. To convert between UTF8 and UTF16 use Unicode::String.
|
|
|
|
For historical reasons this module coexists with Unicode::Map8.
|
|
Please use Unicode::Map8 unless you need to care for >1 byte character
|
|
sets, e.g. chinese GB2312. Anyway, if you stick to the basic
|
|
functionality (see documentation) you can use both modules equivalently.
|
|
|
|
Practically this module will disappear from earth sooner or later as
|
|
Unicode mapping support needs somehow to get into perl's core. If you
|
|
like to work on this field please don't hesitate contacting Gisle Aas
|
|
and check out the mailing list perl-unicode!
