( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

This is a follow up of my Lost in encodings question.

Thanks to the answers given there I was able to solve that issue, but now I'm clueless again as I now need to read in compressed (gzip) UTF-8 files and I do not know how to convince perl to read them as UTF-8.

My code for opening the files is:

open my $in, '<:utf8', $filename or die "Can't read $filename: $!\ +n"; if ($filename=~/\.gz$/) { $in= new IO::Uncompress::Gunzip $in, { AutoClose => 1 }; }

When reading uncompressed data, it works fine as I could verify with the help given in my previous thread. I did so by setting the debugger to UTF-8. When reading uncompressed data the Umlaut "ü" is correctly displayed as "ü". When reading the same data from a compressed file the "ü" is displayed as "ü".

I have no idea how to make perl consider the compressed data as UTF-8?

  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
