function

Library: JIS (OMFFJIS)
Import : omffjis.xmd

Returns: a scannable input source for streaming data


Declaration 
export external string source function 
   reader from value string source input-data


Purpose

Example

The following program uses jis.reader to convert #main-input from UTF-8 to JIS, and send the result to find rules for further processing. 

  import "omffjis.xmd" prefixed by jis.
  
  process
     using group "process input"
        submit jis.reader from #main-input
  
  group "process input"
     ; ...

Usage Note

To use jis.reader, you must import OMFFJIS into your program using an import declaration such as: 

  import "omffjis.xmd" prefixed by jis.
