Encoding::Registry Reference

Management of available encodings

What it is #

Routines #

Signatures are reproduced from the documentation, including their declared return types. A routine listed here is part of the type's published interface; whether Raku++ implements it is a separate question, answered by the examples below.

method name #

method register(Encoding $enc --> Nil)

Returns Nil.

Register a new Encoding.

method find #

method find(Str() $name)

Finds an encoding by its name. Returns an Encoding::Encoder or Encoding::Decoder, depending on what had been registered.

Examples, run three ways #

Every example below comes from the official documentation, together with the output that documentation asserts. Each was then executed by Rakudo and by Raku++ when this page was built. Where the three agree, one result is shown; where they do not, all three are — because which of them is wrong is exactly the information worth having.
