# Encoding::FixLatin::XS(3pm)

XS implementation layer for Encoding::FixLatin

## NAME

Encoding::FixLatin::XS - XS implementation layer for Encoding::FixLatin

## SYNOPSIS

```
  use Encoding::FixLatin  qw(fix_latin);    # will load XS module if available
  my $utf8_string = fix_latin($mixed_encoding_string);
```

## DESCRIPTION

This module provides a C implementation of the 'fix\_latin' algorithm.  It is not meant to be called directly.  Instead, simply install this module and use Encoding::FixLatin as normal.  Encoding::FixLatin will use this module if it's found and will fall back to the pure-Perl implementation otherwise.

The `"fix_latin"` function accepts a `"use_xs"` option which can be used to control how this module is used:

```
  # Default behaviour: try to load/use XS module, fall back to PP on failure
  $out = fix_latin($in, use_xs => 'auto');
  # Always try to load/use XS module, die if it's not available
  $out = fix_latin($in, use_xs => 'always');
  # Never try to load/use XS module, always use pure-Perl implementation
  $out = fix_latin($in, use_xs => 'never');
```
