-- This is an Ada 2012 package defined in AI05-0137-1. It is used for encoding
-- and decoding Wide_String values using UTF encodings. Note: this package is
-- consistent with Ada 95, and may be included in Ada 95 implementations.
package Ada.Strings.UTF_Encoding.Wide_Strings is
pragma Pure (Wide_Strings);
-- The encoding routines take a Wide_String as input and encode the result
-- using the specified UTF encoding method. The result includes a BOM if
-- the Output_BOM argument is set to True. Encoding_Error is raised if an
-- invalid character appears in the input. In particular the characters
-- in the range 16#D800# .. 16#DFFF# are invalid because they conflict
-- with UTF-16 surrogate encodings, and the characters 16#FFFE# and
-- 16#FFFF# are also invalid because they conflict with BOM codes.

-- Encode Wide_String using UTF_16 encoding
-- The decoding routines take a UTF String as input, and return a decoded
-- Wide_String. If the UTF String starts with a BOM that matches the
-- encoding method, it is ignored. An incorrect BOM raises Encoding_Error.
function Decode
(Item : UTF_String;
Input_Scheme : Encoding_Scheme) return Wide_String;
-- The input is encoded in UTF_8, UTF_16LE or UTF_16BE as specified by the
-- Input_Scheme parameter. It is decoded and returned as a Wide_String
-- value. Note: a convenient form for scheme may be Encoding (UTF_String).

(Item : UTF_8_String) return Wide_String;

function Decode
(Item : UTF_16_Wide_String) return Wide_String;
