Raised by Encoding
and String
methods when a transcoding operation fails.
Returns the one-character string which cause Encoding::UndefinedConversionError
.
ec = Encoding::Converter.new("ISO-8859-1", "EUC-JP") begin ec.convert("\xa0") rescue Encoding::UndefinedConversionError puts $!.error_char.dump #=> "\xC2\xA0" p $!.error_char.encoding #=> #<Encoding:UTF-8> end
static VALUE ecerr_source_encoding(VALUE self) { return rb_attr_get(self, rb_intern("source_encoding")); }
Returns the source encoding as an encoding object.
Note that the result may not be equal to the source encoding of the encoding converter if the conversion has multiple steps.
ec = Encoding::Converter.new("ISO-8859-1", "EUC-JP") # ISO-8859-1 -> UTF-8 -> EUC-JP begin ec.convert("\xa0") # NO-BREAK SPACE, which is available in UTF-8 but not in EUC-JP. rescue Encoding::UndefinedConversionError p $!.source_encoding #=> #<Encoding:UTF-8> p $!.destination_encoding #=> #<Encoding:EUC-JP> p $!.source_encoding_name #=> "UTF-8" p $!.destination_encoding_name #=> "EUC-JP" end
