$db->Filter_Push('encode' => 'iso-8859-16');

📖 DESCRIPTION

This DBM filter allows you to choose the character encoding that will be stored in the DBM file. The usage is

$db->Filter_Push('encode' => ENCODING);

where ENCODING must be a valid encoding name that the Encode module recognises.

A fatal error will be thrown if:

1. ⚡️ The Encode module is not available.
2. ⚡️ The encoding requested is not supported by the Encode module.
