Perl Programmers Reference Guide Encode::CN(3) NAME Encode::CN - China-based Chinese Encodings SYNOPSIS use Encode qw/encode decode/; $euc_cn = encode("euc-cn", $utf8); # loads Encode::CN implicitly $utf8 = decode("euc-cn", $euc_cn); # ditto DESCRIPTION This module implements China-based Chinese charset encodings. Encodings supported are as follows. Canonical Alias Description -------------------------------------------------------------------- euc-cn /\beuc.*cn$/i EUC (Extended Unix Character) /\bcn.*euc$/i /\bGB[-_ ]?2312(?:\D.*$|$)/i (see below) gb2312-raw The raw (low-bit) GB2312 character map gb12345-raw Traditional chinese counterpart to GB2312 (raw) iso-ir-165 GB2312 + GB6345 + GB8565 + additions MacChineseSimp GB2312 + Apple Additions cp936 Code Page 936, also known as GBK (Extended GuoBiao) hz 7-bit escaped GB2312 encoding -------------------------------------------------------------------- To find how to use this module in detail, see Encode. ATTRIBUTES See attributes(7) for descriptions of the following attributes: +---------------+-----------------------+ |ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +---------------+-----------------------+ |Availability | runtime/perl-532 | +---------------+-----------------------+ |Stability | Pass-through volatile | +---------------+-----------------------+ NOTES Due to size concerns, "GB 18030" (an extension to "GBK") is distributed separately on CPAN, under the name Encode::HanExtra. That module also contains extra Taiwan-based encodings.

This software was built from source available at https://github.com/oracle/solaris-userland. The original community source was downloaded from http://www.cpan.org/src/5.0/perl-5.32.0.tar.gz. Further information about this software can be found on the open source community website at https://www.perl.org/. BUGS When you see "charset=gb2312" on mails and web pages, they really mean "euc-cn" encodings. To fix that, "gb2312" is aliased to "euc-cn". Use "gb2312-raw" when you really mean it. The ASCII region (0x00-0x7f) is preserved for all encodings, even though this conflicts with mappings by the Unicode Consortium. SEE ALSO Encode perl v5.32.0 2020-06-14 Encode::CN(3)
