Summary: Add UTF-16BE and UTF-16LE as aliases for UTF-16
Product: APR
Version: HEAD
Platform: All
OS/Version: other
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: P2
Component: APR-iconv
AssignedTo: bugs@apr.apache.org
ReportedBy: margol@beamartyr.net
iconv supports the explicit Big-Endian and explicit Little-Endian encodings of
UTF-16. I would imagine that the default utf-16 module in apr-iconv can tackle
both, so it would be great if requests for an explicit endian-ness could be
requested from apr-iconv

As I point out on list - simply aliasing these is invalid.
If we call for -be variants on a small endian platform, the byte order of the
unicode words must be transposed.
If we call for -le variants on a large endian platform, the byte order of the
unicode words must be transposed.
I presume your proposed fix does not do this?

Paraphrasing my reply from dev@apr, I (naively) assumed that the lack of
seperate BE and LE modules, that the existing utf-16 module could somehow
handle both (otherwise how could we handle, for example, a BE client sending
UTF-16 to an LE server). Unfortunately, the implementation doesn't seem to do
that, and just assumes an HSB encoding unless a BOM says otherwise.
