Hi,
Just use set_error_handler() to catch errors that occurred within
iconv().
Proof of concept:
<?php
class EncodingConverter
{
var $_last_err;
var $_in_enc;
var $_out_enc;
function EncodingConverter($out_enc, $in_enc) {
$this->_out_enc = $out_enc;
$this->_in_enc = $in_enc;
}
function _handleError($err, $msg) {
$this->_last_err = $msg;
}
function convert($str) {
$this->_last_err = false;
set_error_handler(array(&$this, '_handleError'));
$retval = iconv($_in_enc, $_out_enc, $str);
restore_error_handler();
return $retval;
}
function getLastError() {
return $this->_last_err;
}
}
$conv = &new EncodingConverter("EUC-JP", "Shift_JIS");
$result = $conv->convert("[EMAIL PROTECTED]([EMAIL PROTECTED](Bx01");
if ($conv->getLastError()) {
echo "ERROR: ".$conv->getLastError()."[EMAIL PROTECTED](Bn";
} else {
echo $result."¥n";
}
?>
HTH,
Moriyoshi

Indeed you are right. I was thinking of that, but I thought it was pointless since I
didn't get an error message printed in the output. It turned out, of course, that I
didn't have error_reporting set as I thought it would be.
Thanks for helping me, it worked out great!
