Module string_decoder 

Node string_decoder core module: new StringDecoder(encoding) with .write(buffer) / .end([buffer]). A StringDecoder turns byte chunks into a string, holding back an incomplete trailing multibyte sequence until the next chunk completes it.

Every encoding that has a chunk boundary buffers across it: UTF-8 holds an incomplete trailing sequence, UTF-16LE holds an odd byte and a trailing high surrogate, and base64 holds up to two bytes so it only ever emits whole 3-byte groups. The single-byte encodings consume everything.

Constants

INSTANCE_METHODS

The methods a StringDecoder instance carries. Also the method set its real prototype object is built from, so a read (sd.write), a call (sd.write(b)) and a prototype lookup (StringDecoder.prototype.write) cannot disagree.

Functions

new StringDecoder([encoding]).
