local-encoding
This repository contains rust library for encoding/decoding string with local charset. It usefull for work with ANSI strings on Windows.
Unfortunately Windows widly use 8-bit character encoding instead UTF-8. This causes a lot of pain.
For example, in Russian version:
To convert between 8-bit and Unicode used Windows have function:
MultiByteToWideChar
and
WideCharToMultiByte
.
This library provide simple function to convert between 8-bit and Unicode characters on Windows.
UTF-8 used as 8-bit codepage for non-Windows system.
