Clojure wrappers around some of the class and instance methods of java.nio.charset.Charset.
Add the following dependency to your project.clj file:
user=> (require ['charset.core :refer ['ascii 'utf-8 'utf-16]]
['charset.bytes :refer ['get-bytes 'ascii-bytes
'utf8-bytes 'utf16-bytes]])
nil
user=> (def street "Maple St")
#'user/street
user=> (get-bytes street)
#<byte[] [B@4dda1665>
user=> (get-bytes street "ascii")
#<byte[] [B@ca01786>
user=> (get-bytes street ascii)
#<byte[] [B@43780824>
user=> (ascii-bytes street)
#<byte[] [B@2e264899>
user=> (String. (ascii-bytes street))
"Maple St"
user=> (String. (utf8-bytes street))
"Maple St"
user=> (String. (utf16-bytes street) "utf-16")
