Module `Markup.Encoding`

Common Internet encodings such as UTF-8 and UTF-16; also includes some less popular encodings that are sometimes used for XML.

type t: Decoders. These are notionally maps from byte streams to Unicode scalar value streams, i.e. pseudocode type char stream -> int stream.

val decode : ?⁠report:(location -> Error.t -> unit) -> t -> (char, 's) stream -> (int, 's) stream

Applies a decoder to a byte stream. Illegal input byte sequences result in calls to the error handler ~report with error kind `Decoding_error. The illegal bytes are then skipped, and zero or more U+FFFD replacement characters are emitted. The default handler ignores errors.

The locations provided to the error handler by the built-in decoders below in this module are fully accurate only if the input byte stream uses LF characters as line breaks.
