NAME Jacode4e::RoundTrip - Jacode4e for round-trip conversion in JIS X 0213 SYNOPSIS use FindBin; use lib "$FindBin::Bin/lib"; use Jacode4e::RoundTrip; $return = Jacode4e::RoundTrip::convert(\$line, $OUTPUT_encoding, $INPUT_encoding [, { %option }]); ABSTRACT This software has been developed for use promotion of JIS X 0213. Jacode4e::RoundTrip module can round-trip convert JIS X 0213 characters in Japanese main-frames or enterprise servers each other, using its user-defined area. The encodings that can be round-trip converted are cp932x, cp00930, keis78, keis83, keis90, jef, jef9p, jipsj, jipse, utf8, and utf8jp. This table shows shortage to support JIS X 0213 in each encoding --------------------------------------------------------------------- already short- user-def. unused free mnemonic supported age area area area --------------------------------------------------------------------- cp932x 11,285 0 -- -- -- cp00930 11,257 28 1,880 -- 1,880 keis78, keis83, keis90 8,268 3,017 2,914 188 3,102 jef, jef9p 8,814 2,471 3,102 -- 3,102 jipsj, jipse 8,637 2,648 3,948 -- 3,948 utf8 11,220 65 6,400 -- 65 utf8jp 11,285 0 -- -- -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- cp00930 use 28 code points from its user-defined area. Similarly, keis78, keis83, and keis90 use 3,017, jef and jef9p use 2,471, jipsj and jipse use 2,648, utf8 use 65. In case of KEIS, user-defined area is not enough to support JIS X 0213. So I decided to use unused area. Yes, you cannot use your gaiji on Jacode4e::RoundTrip module, you see. Jacode4e::RoundTrip module doesn't work as Jacode4e. And Jacode4e module doesn't work as Jacode4e::RoundTrip, too. This software is useful for processing your JIS X 0213 data by other system, and importing it again into your system. WHAT IS "CP932X"? * "cp932x" as mnemonic * CP932X is CP932 * Pronounce [si: pi: nain thri: tu: kai] in English * Pronounce [shi: pi: kju: san' ni kai] in Japanese * [si: pi: nain thri: tu: iks] is reserved for Microsoft Corporation ;-P * CP932 upper compatible * Supports JIS X 0213 character set * Used ghost character "\x9C\x5A" as single shift code * Used "\x9C\x5A\x9C\x5A" for single "\x9C\x5A" * You can use private use characters you made * You can use your operating system, network, and database. * In most cases, application programs can be used as it is.
