Hello All,
I'm using utf-8 Postgres database, where I save strings in many languages.
I have to match the database with strings encoded in mime base64 or
quoted-printable format. Like next:
=?utf-8?B?15TXoNeUINee16nXlNeZINeR16LXkdeo15nXqi4=?=
or
=?KOI8-R?Q?=F0=D2=C9=D7=C5=D4=2C_=ED=C9=D2!!!?=
I think that I need first convert these strings to utf-8, but I can not
find out how to do it.
You are looking for MIME::Words::decode_mimewords(). The function will
also give you the charset of the decoded data, and if you are lucky
enough, that charset will be known to Encode and you can convert it to
UTF-8. Unfortunately, you will be out of luck for the somewhat common
case of UTF-7 (unless it is available in Encode by now).
Ciao
Guido
