Initializes a new instance of the UnicodeEncoding class.

Overloads

UnicodeEncoding()	Initializes a new instance of the UnicodeEncoding class.
UnicodeEncoding(Boolean, Boolean)	Initializes a new instance of the UnicodeEncoding class. Parameters specify whether to use the big endian byte order and whether the GetPreamble() method returns a Unicode byte order mark.
UnicodeEncoding(Boolean, Boolean, Boolean)	Initializes a new instance of the UnicodeEncoding class. Parameters specify whether to use the big endian byte order, whether to provide a Unicode byte order mark, and whether to throw an exception when an invalid encoding is detected.

UnicodeEncoding()

Source:: UnicodeEncoding.cs

Source:: UnicodeEncoding.cs

Source:: UnicodeEncoding.cs

Initializes a new instance of the UnicodeEncoding class.

public:
 UnicodeEncoding();

public UnicodeEncoding ();

Public Sub New ()

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to create a new UnicodeEncoding instance and display the name of the encoding.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Text;
int main()
{
   UnicodeEncoding^ unicode = gcnew UnicodeEncoding;
   String^ encodingName = unicode->EncodingName;
   Console::WriteLine( "Encoding name: {0}", encodingName );
}

using System;
using System.Text;

class UnicodeEncodingExample {
    public static void Main() {
        UnicodeEncoding unicode = new UnicodeEncoding();
        String encodingName = unicode.EncodingName;
        Console.WriteLine("Encoding name: " + encodingName);
    }
}

Imports System.Text

Class UnicodeEncodingExample

    Public Shared Sub Main()
        Dim uni As New UnicodeEncoding()
        Dim encodingName As String = uni.EncodingName
        Console.WriteLine("Encoding name: " & encodingName)
    End Sub
End Class

Remarks

This constructor creates an instance that uses the little endian byte order, provides a Unicode byte order mark, and does not throw an exception when an invalid encoding is detected.

Caution

For security reasons, you should enable error detection by calling the UnicodeEncoding(Boolean, Boolean, Boolean) constructor and setting its throwOnInvalidBytes argument to true.

Applies to

UnicodeEncoding(Boolean, Boolean)

Source:: UnicodeEncoding.cs

Source:: UnicodeEncoding.cs

Source:: UnicodeEncoding.cs

Initializes a new instance of the UnicodeEncoding class. Parameters specify whether to use the big endian byte order and whether the GetPreamble() method returns a Unicode byte order mark.

public:
 UnicodeEncoding(bool bigEndian, bool byteOrderMark);

public UnicodeEncoding (bool bigEndian, bool byteOrderMark);

new System.Text.UnicodeEncoding : bool * bool -> System.Text.UnicodeEncoding

Public Sub New (bigEndian As Boolean, byteOrderMark As Boolean)

Parameters

bigEndian: Boolean

true to use the big endian byte order (most significant byte first), or false to use the little endian byte order (least significant byte first).

byteOrderMark: Boolean

true to specify that the GetPreamble() method returns a Unicode byte order mark; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to create a new UnicodeEncoding instance specifying whether to support little endian or big endian byte ordering and the Unicode byte order mark.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Text;
void DescribeEquivalence( Boolean isEquivalent )
{
   Console::WriteLine( " {0} equivalent encoding.", (isEquivalent ? (String^)"An" : "Not an") );
}

int main()

   // Create a UnicodeEncoding without parameters.
   UnicodeEncoding^ unicode = gcnew UnicodeEncoding;
   
   // Create a UnicodeEncoding to support little-endian Byte ordering
   // and include the Unicode Byte order mark.
   UnicodeEncoding^ unicodeLittleEndianBOM = gcnew UnicodeEncoding( false,true );
   
   // Compare this UnicodeEncoding to the UnicodeEncoding without parameters.
   DescribeEquivalence( unicode->Equals( unicodeLittleEndianBOM ) );
   
   // Create a UnicodeEncoding to support little-endian Byte ordering
   // and not include the Unicode Byte order mark.
   UnicodeEncoding^ unicodeLittleEndianNoBOM = gcnew UnicodeEncoding( false,false );
   
   // Compare this UnicodeEncoding to the UnicodeEncoding without parameters.

Remarks

This constructor creates an instance that does not throw an exception when an invalid encoding is detected.

Caution

For security reasons, you should enable error detection by calling the UnicodeEncoding(Boolean, Boolean, Boolean) constructor and setting its throwOnInvalidBytes argument to true.

The byteOrderMark parameter controls the operation of the GetPreamble method. If true, the method returns a byte array containing the Unicode byte order mark (BOM) in UTF-16 format. If false, it returns a zero-length byte array. However, setting byteOrderMark to true does not cause the GetBytes method to prefix the BOM at the beginning of the byte array, nor does it cause the GetByteCount method to include the number of bytes in the BOM in the byte count.

Source:: UnicodeEncoding.cs

Initializes a new instance of the UnicodeEncoding class. Parameters specify whether to use the big endian byte order, whether to provide a Unicode byte order mark, and whether to throw an exception when an invalid encoding is detected.

public:
 UnicodeEncoding(bool bigEndian, bool byteOrderMark, bool throwOnInvalidBytes);

new System.Text.UnicodeEncoding : bool * bool * bool -> System.Text.UnicodeEncoding

Public Sub New (bigEndian As Boolean, byteOrderMark As Boolean, throwOnInvalidBytes As Boolean)

Parameters

bigEndian: Boolean

true to use the big endian byte order (most significant byte first); false to use the little endian byte order (least significant byte first).

byteOrderMark: Boolean

true to specify that the GetPreamble() method returns a Unicode byte order mark; otherwise, false.

throwOnInvalidBytes: Boolean

true to specify that an exception should be thrown when an invalid encoding is detected; otherwise, false.

Remarks

If the throwOnInvalidBytes parameter is true, a method that detects an invalid byte sequence throws System.ArgumentException. Otherwise, the method does not throw an exception, and the invalid sequence is ignored.

Caution

For security reasons, you should use this constructor to create an instance of the UnicodeEncoding class and turn on error detection by setting throwOnInvalidBytes to true.
