.to_unicode(str = '', type = 'utf-16le', mode = '', size = '') ⇒ Object

Converts standard ASCII text to a unicode string.

Supported unicode types include: utf-16le, utf16-be, utf32-le, utf32-be, utf-7, and utf-8

Providing ‘mode’ provides hints to the actual encoder as to how it should encode the string. Only UTF-7 and UTF-8 use “mode”.

utf-7 by default does not encode alphanumeric and a few other characters. By specifying the mode of “all”, then all of the characters are encoded, not just the non-alphanumeric set. to_unicode(str, ‘utf-7’, ‘all’)

utf-8 specifies that alphanumeric characters are used directly, eg “a” is just “a”. However, there exist 6 different overlong encodings of “a” that are technically not valid, but parse just fine in most utf-8 parsers. (0xC1A1, 0xE081A1, 0xF08081A1, 0xF8808081A1, 0xFC80808081A1, 0xFE8080808081A1). How many bytes to use for the overlong enocding is specified providing ‘size’. to_unicode(str, ‘utf-8’, ‘overlong’, 2)

Many utf-8 parsers also allow invalid overlong encodings, where bits that are unused when encoding a single byte are modified. Many parsers will ignore these bits, rendering simple string matching to be ineffective for dealing with UTF-8 strings. There are many more invalid overlong encodings possible for “a”. For example, three encodings are available for an invalid 2 byte encoding of “a”. (0xC1E1 0xC161 0xC121). By specifying “invalid”, a random invalid encoding is chosen for the given byte size. to_unicode(str, ‘utf-8’, ‘invalid’, 2)

utf-7 defaults to ‘normal’ utf-7 encoding utf-8 defaults to 2 byte ‘normal’ encoding
