Michael Beckerle commented on DAFFODIL-258:
-------------------------------------------
This notion of lowering a delimter to iso-8859-1 characters aka bytes is
interesting.
Suppose a terminator is in utf-8. Consider:
{code}
val terminatorIn8859 = new String(terminator.getBytes("utf-8"),
StandardCharsets.ISO_8859_1)
{code}
So the multi-byte characters in this utf-8 are "lowered" to multiple characters
(aka bytes) in ISO-8859-1. These lowered characters can then be inter-mixed
with raw bytes - which are not "raw" but valid character codes in iso-8859-1
where every byte is valid.
