Methods

	Name	Description
	Clone	When overridden in a derived class, creates a shallow copy of the current Encoding object. (Inherited from Encoding.)
	Equals	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current UTF8Encoding object. (Overrides Encoding..::.Equals(Object).)
	Finalize	Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetByteCount	Overloaded. Calculates the number of bytes produced by encoding a set of characters.
	GetBytes	Overloaded. Encodes a set of characters into a sequence of bytes.
	GetCharCount	Overloaded. Calculates the number of characters produced by decoding a sequence of bytes.
	GetChars	Overloaded. Decodes a sequence of bytes into a set of characters.
	GetDecoder	Obtains a decoder that converts a UTF-8 encoded sequence of bytes into a sequence of Unicode characters. (Overrides Encoding..::.GetDecoder()()().)
	GetEncoder	Obtains an encoder that converts a sequence of Unicode characters into a UTF-8 encoded sequence of bytes. (Overrides Encoding..::.GetEncoder()()().)
	GetHashCode	Returns the hash code for the current instance. (Overrides Encoding..::.GetHashCode()()().)
	GetMaxByteCount	Calculates the maximum number of bytes produced by encoding the specified number of characters. (Overrides Encoding..::.GetMaxByteCount(Int32).)
	GetMaxCharCount	Calculates the maximum number of characters produced by decoding the specified number of bytes. (Overrides Encoding..::.GetMaxCharCount(Int32).)
	GetPreamble	Returns a Unicode byte order mark encoded in UTF-8 format, if the constructor for this instance requests a byte order mark. (Overrides Encoding..::.GetPreamble()()().)
	GetString	Overloaded. Decodes a sequence of bytes into a string.
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	IsAlwaysNormalized	Overloaded.
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ToString	Returns a String that represents the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)

Properties

	Name	Description
	BodyName	When overridden in a derived class, gets a name for the current encoding that can be used with mail agent body tags. (Inherited from Encoding.)
	CodePage	When overridden in a derived class, gets the code page identifier of the current Encoding. (Inherited from Encoding.)
	DecoderFallback	Gets or sets the DecoderFallback object for the current Encoding object. (Inherited from Encoding.)
	EncoderFallback	Gets or sets the EncoderFallback object for the current Encoding object. (Inherited from Encoding.)
	EncodingName	When overridden in a derived class, gets the human-readable description of the current encoding. (Inherited from Encoding.)
	HeaderName	When overridden in a derived class, gets a name for the current encoding that can be used with mail agent header tags. (Inherited from Encoding.)
	IsBrowserDisplay	When overridden in a derived class, gets a value indicating whether the current encoding can be used by browser clients for displaying content. (Inherited from Encoding.)
	IsBrowserSave	When overridden in a derived class, gets a value indicating whether the current encoding can be used by browser clients for saving content. (Inherited from Encoding.)
	IsMailNewsDisplay	When overridden in a derived class, gets a value indicating whether the current encoding can be used by mail and news clients for displaying content. (Inherited from Encoding.)
	IsMailNewsSave	When overridden in a derived class, gets a value indicating whether the current encoding can be used by mail and news clients for saving content. (Inherited from Encoding.)
	IsReadOnly	When overridden in a derived class, gets a value indicating whether the current encoding is read-only. (Inherited from Encoding.)
	IsSingleByte	When overridden in a derived class, gets a value indicating whether the current encoding uses single-byte code points. (Inherited from Encoding.)
	WebName	When overridden in a derived class, gets the name registered with the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) for the current encoding. (Inherited from Encoding.)
	WindowsCodePage	When overridden in a derived class, gets the Windows operating system code page that most closely corresponds to the current encoding. (Inherited from Encoding.)
