143 =head1 NAME
145 open - perl pragma to set default PerlIO layers for input and output
147 =head1 SYNOPSIS
149 use open IN => ":crlf", OUT => ":bytes";
150 use open OUT => ':utf8';
151 use open IO => ":encoding(iso-8859-7)";
153 use open IO => ':locale';
155 use open ':utf8';
156 use open ':locale';
157 use open ':encoding(iso-8859-7)';
159 use open ':std';
161 =head1 DESCRIPTION
163 Full-fledged support for I/O layers is now implemented provided
164 Perl is configured to use PerlIO as its IO system (which is now the
165 default).
167 The C<open> pragma serves as one of the interfaces to declare default
168 "layers" (also known as "disciplines") for all I/O. Any two-argument
169 open(), readpipe() (aka qx//) and similar operators found within the
170 lexical scope of this pragma will use the declared defaults.
171 Even three-argument opens may be affected by this pragma
172 when they don't specify IO layers in MODE.
174 With the C<IN> subpragma you can declare the default layers
175 of input streams, and with the C<OUT> subpragma you can declare
176 the default layers of output streams. With the C<IO> subpragma
177 you can control both input and output streams simultaneously.
179 If you have a legacy encoding, you can use the C<:encoding(...)> tag.
181 If you want to set your encoding layers based on your
182 locale environment variables, you can use the C<:locale> tag.
183 For example:
185 $ENV{LANG} = 'ru_RU.KOI8-R';
186 # the :locale will probe the locale environment variables like LANG
187 use open OUT => ':locale';
188 open(O, ">koi8");
189 print O chr(0x430); # Unicode CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER A = KOI8-R 0xc1
190 close O;
191 open(I, "<koi8");
192 printf "%#x\n", ord(<I>), "\n"; # this should print 0xc1
193 close I;
195 These are equivalent
197 use open ':utf8';
198 use open IO => ':utf8';
200 as are these
202 use open ':locale';
203 use open IO => ':locale';
205 and these
207 use open ':encoding(iso-8859-7)';
208 use open IO => ':encoding(iso-8859-7)';
210 The matching of encoding names is loose: case does not matter, and
211 many encodings have several aliases. See L<Encode::Supported> for
212 details and the list of supported locales.
214 Note that C<:utf8> PerlIO layer must always be specified exactly like
215 that, it is not subject to the loose matching of encoding names.
217 When open() is given an explicit list of layers (with the three-arg
218 syntax), they override the list declared using this pragma.
220 The C<:std> subpragma on its own has no effect, but if combined with
221 the C<:utf8> or C<:encoding> subpragmas, it converts the standard
222 filehandles (STDIN, STDOUT, STDERR) to comply with encoding selected
223 for input/output handles. For example, if both input and out are
224 chosen to be C<:utf8>, a C<:std> will mean that STDIN, STDOUT, and
225 STDERR are also in C<:utf8>. On the other hand, if only output is
226 chosen to be in C<< :encoding(koi8r) >>, a C<:std> will cause only the
227 STDOUT and STDERR to be in C<koi8r>. The C<:locale> subpragma
228 implicitly turns on C<:std>.
230 The logic of C<:locale> is described in full in L<encoding>,
231 but in short it is first trying nl_langinfo(CODESET) and then
232 guessing from the LC_ALL and LANG locale environment variables.
234 Directory handles may also support PerlIO layers in the future.
236 =head1 NONPERLIO FUNCTIONALITY
238 If Perl is not built to use PerlIO as its IO system then only the two
239 pseudo-layers C<:bytes> and C<:crlf> are available.
241 The C<:bytes> layer corresponds to "binary mode" and the C<:crlf>
242 layer corresponds to "text mode" on platforms that distinguish
243 between the two modes when opening files (which is many DOS-like
244 platforms, including Windows). These two layers are no-ops on
245 platforms where binmode() is a no-op, but perform their functions
246 everywhere if PerlIO is enabled.
248 =head1 IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS
250 There is a class method in C<PerlIO::Layer> C<find> which is
251 implemented as XS code. It is called by C<import> to validate the
252 layers:
254 PerlIO::Layer::->find("perlio")
256 The return value (if defined) is a Perl object, of class
257 C<PerlIO::Layer> which is created by the C code in F<perlio.c>. As
258 yet there is nothing useful you can do with the object at the perl
259 level.
