Library: Character encodings, Shift JIS (OMFFSJIS) Import: omffsjis.xmd

Declaration

  export external output function writer
                      into value output output-data

Use writer to accept UTF-8 encoded data and write that data to a value output, its argument, converted from a UTF-8 encoding to a Shift-JIS encoding. That is, the program writes UTF-8, but the provided output receives Shift-JIS.

Usage Note

To use omffsjis, you must import it into your program using a statement like this:

    import "omffsjis.xmd" prefixed by sjis.

Example

  ; Write a Shift-JIS-encoded file named by the first command-line
  ; argument using the stream named "output-file".  Convert
  ; the data from UTF-8 to Shift-JIS prior to writing it to the file.
  import "omffsjis.xmd" prefixed by sjis.
  process
     local stream output-file
     open output-file as sjis.writer into file #args [1]
