               static VALUE
ecerr_destination_encoding(VALUE self)
{
    return rb_attr_get(self, rb_intern("destination_encoding"));
}
            
destination_encoding_name → string click to toggle source

Returns the destination encoding name as a string.

 
               static VALUE
ecerr_destination_encoding_name(VALUE self)
{
    return rb_attr_get(self, rb_intern("destination_encoding_name"));
}
            
error_char → string click to toggle source

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_error_char(VALUE self)
{
    return rb_attr_get(self, rb_intern("error_char"));
}
            
source_encoding → encoding click to toggle source

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
 
               static VALUE
ecerr_source_encoding(VALUE self)
{
    return rb_attr_get(self, rb_intern("source_encoding"));
}
            
source_encoding_name → string click to toggle source

Returns the source encoding name as a string.

 
               static VALUE
ecerr_source_encoding_name(VALUE self)
{
    return rb_attr_get(self, rb_intern("source_encoding_name"));
}
