Hi,
Can you please help me/point me to the usage for std.encoding
package.I think i was successfully able to encode a string into
byte array using the following code:
string x = "test";
ubyte[] buffer;
EncodingScheme es = EncodingScheme.create("UTF-16LE");
foreach(c;codePoints(x))
{
ubyte[4] buf;
int l = es.encode(c, buf);
buffer~=buf[0..l];
}
and i was able to decode using the following:
string y;
for(int pos=0;pos<buffer.length;pos+=2)
{
ubyte[] cha;
cha = buffer[pos..pos+2];
dchar f1 = es.decode(cha);
y~=cast(char)f1;
}
However i dont think i am doing it the correct way, particularly
the decoding part. (introducing 2 and creating another buffer
etc.).. if i directly try decoding it using the buffer variable in
the decoding example, i do not get a correctly decoded string.
Can you please let me know the correct way to encode and then
decode a string using std.encoding package. I tried reading the doc
page on the site but wasnt able to clearly follow it.
Regards
Mandeep
