Description

Unicode and UTF-8 Conversion Functions

Synopsis

Unicode Type declarations

type Unicode = CharSource

Unicode is represented as the Char type Precondition for this is the support of Unicode character range in the compiler (e.g. ghc but not hugs)

type UString = [Unicode]Source

the type for Unicode strings

type UTF8Char = CharSource

UTF-8 charachters are represented by the Char type

type UTF8String = StringSource

UTF-8 strings are implemented as Haskell strings

type DecodingFct = String -> (UString, [String])Source

Decoding function with a pair containing the result string and a list of decoding errors as result

type DecodingFctEmbedErrors = String -> UStringWithErrorsSource

Decoding function where decoding errors are interleaved with decoded characters

utf8ToUnicode :: DecodingFctSource

UTF-8 to Unicode conversion with deletion of leading byte order mark, as described in XML standard F.1

latin1ToUnicode :: String -> UStringSource

code conversion from latin1 to Unicode

ucs2ToUnicode :: String -> UStringSource

UCS-2 to UTF-8 conversion with byte order mark analysis

ucs2BigEndianToUnicode :: String -> UStringSource

UCS-2 big endian to Unicode conversion

ucs2LittleEndianToUnicode :: String -> UStringSource

UCS-2 little endian to Unicode conversion

utf16beToUnicode :: String -> UStringSource

UTF-16 big endian to UTF-8 conversion with removal of byte order mark

utf16leToUnicode :: String -> UStringSource

UTF-16 little endian to UTF-8 conversion with removal of byte order mark

unicodeCharToUtf8 :: Unicode -> UTF8StringSource

conversion from Unicode (Char) to a UTF8 encoded string.

unicodeToUtf8 :: UString -> UTF8StringSource

conversion from Unicode strings (UString) to UTF8 encoded strings.

unicodeToXmlEntity :: UString -> StringSource

substitute all Unicode characters, that are not legal 1-byte UTF-8 XML characters by a character reference.

This function can be used to translate all text nodes and attribute values into pure ascii.

see also : unicodeToLatin1

unicodeToLatin1 :: UString -> StringSource

substitute all Unicode characters, that are not legal latin1 UTF-8 XML characters by a character reference.

This function can be used to translate all text nodes and attribute values into ISO latin1.

see also : unicodeToXmlEntity

unicodeRemoveNoneAscii :: UString -> StringSource

removes all non ascii chars, may be used to transform a document into a pure ascii representation by removing all non ascii chars from tag and attibute names

see also : unicodeRemoveNoneLatin1, unicodeToXmlEntity

unicodeRemoveNoneLatin1 :: UString -> StringSource

removes all non latin1 chars, may be used to transform a document into a pure ascii representation by removing all non ascii chars from tag and attibute names

see also : unicodeRemoveNoneAscii, unicodeToLatin1

intToCharRef :: Int -> StringSource

convert an Unicode into a XML character reference.

see also : intToCharRefHex

intToCharRefHex :: Int -> StringSource

convert an Unicode into a XML hexadecimal character reference.

see also: intToCharRef

getDecodingFct :: String -> Maybe DecodingFctSource

the lookup function for selecting the decoding function

getDecodingFctEmbedErrors :: String -> Maybe DecodingFctEmbedErrorsSource

the lookup function for selecting the decoding function

getOutputEncodingFct :: String -> Maybe (String -> UString)Source

the lookup function for selecting the encoding function

normalizeNL :: String -> StringSource

White Space (XML Standard 2.3) and end of line handling (2.11)

#x0D and #x0D#x0A are mapped to #x0A

getOutputEncodingFct' :: String -> Maybe (Char -> StringFct)Source

the lookup function for selecting the encoding function

unicodeCharToUtf8' :: Char -> StringFctSource

conversion from Unicode (Char) to a UTF8 encoded string.

unicodeCharToXmlEntity' :: Char -> StringFctSource

substitute all Unicode characters, that are not legal 1-byte UTF-8 XML characters by a character reference.

unicodeCharToLatin1' :: Char -> StringFctSource

substitute all Unicode characters, that are not legal latin1 UTF-8 XML characters by a character reference.
