CharsetDecoder

An engine that can transform a sequence of bytes in a specific charset into a sequence of sixteen-bit Unicode characters.

CharsetEncoder

An engine that can transform a sequence of sixteen-bit Unicode characters into a sequence of bytes in a specific charset.

CoderResult

A description of the result state of a coder.

CodingErrorAction

A typesafe enumeration for coding-error actions.

StandardCharsets

Constant definitions for the standard Charsets.

Exceptions

CharacterCodingException

Checked exception thrown when a character encoding or decoding error occurs.

CoderMalfunctionError

Error thrown when the decodeLoop method of a CharsetDecoder, or the encodeLoop method of a CharsetEncoder, throws an unexpected exception.

IllegalCharsetNameException

Unchecked exception thrown when a string that is not a legal charset name is used as such.

MalformedInputException

Checked exception thrown when an input byte sequence is not legal for given charset, or an input character sequence is not a legal sixteen-bit Unicode sequence.

UnmappableCharacterException

UnsupportedCharsetException
