16 -- This is an Ada 2012 package defined in AI05-0137-1. It is used for encoding
17 -- and decoding String values using UTF encodings. Note: this package is
18 -- consistent with Ada 95, and may be included in Ada 95 implementations.
20 package Ada.Strings.UTF_Encoding.Strings is
21 pragma Pure (Strings);
23 -- The encoding routines take a String as input and encode the result
24 -- using the specified UTF encoding method. The result includes a BOM if
25 -- the Output_BOM argument is set to True. All 256 values of type Character
26 -- are valid, so Encoding_Error cannot be raised for string input data.

31 Output_BOM : Boolean := False) return UTF_String;
32 -- Encode String using UTF-8, UTF-16LE or UTF-16BE encoding as specified by
33 -- the Output_Scheme parameter.
35 function Encode

43 -- Encode String using UTF_16 encoding
45 -- The decoding routines take a UTF String as input, and return a decoded
46 -- Wide_String. If the UTF String starts with a BOM that matches the
47 -- encoding method, it is ignored. An incorrect BOM raises Encoding_Error,
48 -- as does a code out of range of type Character.
50 function Decode

52 Input_Scheme : Encoding_Scheme) return String;
53 -- The input is encoded in UTF_8, UTF_16LE or UTF_16BE as specified by the
54 -- Input_Scheme parameter. It is decoded and returned as a String value.
55 -- Note: a convenient form for scheme may be Encoding (UTF_String).
