NAME
Encode::Detect::Detector - Detects the encoding of data
SYNOPSIS
use Encode::Detect::Detector;
my $charset = detect($octets);
my $d = new Encode::Detect::Detector;
$d->handle($octets);
$d->handle($more_octets);
$d->end;
my $charset = $d->getresult;
DESCRIPTION
This module provides an interface to Mozilla's universal charset
detector, which detects the charset used to encode data.
METHODS
$charset = Encode::Detect::Detector->detect($octets)
Detect the charset used to encode the data in $octets and return the
charset's name. Returns undef if the charset cannot be determined with
sufficient confidence.
$d = Encode::Detect::Detector->new()
Creates a new "Encode::Detect::Detector" object and returns it.
$d->handle($octets)
Provides an additional chunk of data to be examined by the detector.
May be called multiple times.
Returns zero on success, nonzero if a memory allocation failed.
$d->eof
Informs the detector that there is no more data to be examined. In
many cases, this is necessary in order for the detector to make a
decision on the charset.
$d->reset
Resets the detector to its initial state.
$d->getresult
Returns the name of the detected charset or "undef" if no charset has
(yet) been decided upon. May be called at any time.
