Currently - this script can only generate Big Endian (Network Byte Order) .cct files. - This decreases conversion performance on little endian systems since iconv - library needs to swap all bytes that it reads from loaded CCS table. - Something such -LE and -BE options should be added to 'iconv_mktbl' script. - - Also, we can keep two .cct file versions - BE and LE (e.g., koi8_r-le.cct - and koi8_r-be.cct) and iconv library will automatically choose needed cct. - - Or we can keep both LE and BE data in one .cct file. - -2. http://www.dante.net/staff/konstantin/FreeBSD/iconv/ contains additional - CES and CCS converters (see iconv-extra-2.0.tar.gz and - iconv-rfc1345-2.0.tar.gz). These extra converters should be added too. - -3. Documentation should be created. It should contain: - 1) How to compile iconv (configure script options description) - 2) How to add new converter - 3) Work principles. - It would be nice if iconv architecture will be described too. - -4. CCS files loading (iconv/lib/loaddata.c). Now file is loaded into memory - for every iconv descriptor. For example, if one use two iconv descriptors - for UTF8->KOI8-R and UTF-16->KOI8-R conversions, koi8_r.cct file will - be loaded twice. To save memory, we should load each .cct only once - (if possible). - - Artem B. Bityuckiy, - SoftMine Corporation, - <abitytsky@softminecorp.com>, - <dedekind@mail.ru>, - Jan, 2004. |
