pub trait Encoding {
    fn name(&self) -> &'static str;
    fn encoder(&self) -> Box<Encoder>;
    fn decoder(&self) -> Box<Decoder>;

    fn whatwg_name(&self) -> Option<&'static str> { ... }

    fn decode(&self, input: &[u8], trap: DecoderTrap) -> Result<String, SendStr> { ... }
}

Character encoding.

Required Methods

fn name(&self) -> &'static str

Returns the canonical name of given encoding. This name is guaranteed to be unique across built-in encodings, but it is not normative and would be at most arbitrary.

fn encoder(&self) -> Box<Encoder>

Creates a new encoder.

fn decoder(&self) -> Box<Decoder>

Creates a new decoder.

Provided Methods

fn whatwg_name(&self) -> Option<&'static str>

Returns a name of given encoding defined in the WHATWG Encoding standard, if any. This name often differs from name due to the compatibility reason.

fn encode(&self, input: &str, trap: EncoderTrap) -> Result<Vec<u8>, SendStr>

An easy-to-use interface to Encoder. On the encoder error trap is called, which may return a replacement sequence to continue processing, or a failure to return the error.

fn decode(&self, input: &[u8], trap: DecoderTrap) -> Result<String, SendStr>

An easy-to-use interface to Decoder. On the decoder error trap is called, which may return a replacement string to continue processing, or a failure to return the error.
