NAME
PerlIO::eol - PerlIO layer for normalizing line endings VERSION
This document describes version 0.14 of PerlIO::eol, released December 18, 2006. SYNOPSIS
binmode STDIN, ":raw:eol(LF)"; binmode STDOUT, ":raw:eol(CRLF)"; open FH, "+<:raw:eol(LF-Native)", "file"; binmode STDOUT, ":raw:eol(CRLF?)"; # warns on mixed newlines binmode STDOUT, ":raw:eol(CRLF!)"; # dies on mixed newlines use PerlIO::eol qw( eol_is_mixed ); my $pos = eol_is_mixed( "mixed string " ); DESCRIPTION
This layer normalizes any of "CR", "LF", "CRLF" and "Native" into the designated line ending. It works for both input and output handles. If you specify two different line endings joined by a "-", it will use the first one for reading and the second one for writing. For example, the "LF-CRLF" encoding means that all input should be normalized to "LF", and all output should be normalized to "CRLF". By default, data with mixed newlines are normalized silently. Append a "!" to the line ending will raise a fatal exception when mixed newlines are spotted. Append a "?" will raise a warning instead. It is advised to pop any potential ":crlf" or encoding layers before this layer; this is usually done using a ":raw" prefix. This module also optionally exports a "eol_is_mixed" function; it takes a string and returns the position of the first inconsistent line ending found in that string, or 0 if the line endings are consistent. The "CR", "LF", "CRLF" and "NATIVE" constants are also exported at request. AUTHORS

NAME
PerlIO::via::dynamic - dynamic PerlIO layers SYNOPSIS
open $fh, $fname; $p = PerlIO::via::dynamic->new (translate => sub { $_[1] =~ s/$Filename[:ws-./\]*$/$Filename: $fname$/e}, untranslate => sub { $_[1] =~ s/$Filename[:ws-./\]*$/$Filename$/}); $p->via ($fh); binmode $fh, $p->via; # deprecated DESCRIPTION
"PerlIO::via::dynamic" is used for creating dynamic PerlIO layers. It is useful when the behavior or the layer depends on variables. You should not use this module as via layer directly (ie :via(dynamic)). Use the constructor to create new layers, with two arguments: translate and untranslate. Then use "$p-"via ($fh)> to wrap the handle. Once <$fh> is destroyed, the temporary namespace for the IO layer will be removed. Note that PerlIO::via::dynamic uses the scalar fields to reference to the object representing the dynamic namespace. OPTIONS
translate A function that translate buffer upon write. untranslate A function that translate buffer upon read. use_read Use "READ" instead of "FILL" for the layer. Useful when caller expect exact amount of data from read, and the "untranslate" function might return different length. By default "PerlIO::via::dynamic" creates line-based layer to make "translate" implementation easier. AUTHORS
