C# UTF8Encoding GetDecoder
Description
UTF8Encoding GetDecoder Obtains a decoder that converts
a UTF-8 encoded sequence of bytes into a sequence of Unicode characters.
Syntax
UTF8Encoding.GetDecoder has the following syntax.
public override Decoder GetDecoder()
Returns
UTF8Encoding.GetDecoder method returns A Decoder that converts a UTF-8 encoded sequence of bytes into a sequence
of Unicode characters.
Example
The following example demonstrates how to use the GetDecoder method to obtain a UTF-8 decoder.
/*from w w w .j ava 2s. c o m*/
using System;
using System.Text;
class UTF8EncodingExample {
public static void Main() {
Char[] chars;
Byte[] bytes = new Byte[] {99, 204, 128, 234, 130, 160};
Decoder utf8Decoder = Encoding.UTF8.GetDecoder();
int charCount = utf8Decoder.GetCharCount(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);
chars = new Char[charCount];
int charsDecodedCount = utf8Decoder.GetChars(bytes, 0, bytes.Length, chars, 0);
Console.WriteLine(charsDecodedCount);
foreach (Char c in chars) {
Console.WriteLine("[{0}]", c);
}
}
}
The code above generates the following result.
