Namespace: System.Text
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Public Overridable Function GetChars ( _
bytes As Byte() _
) As Char()
public virtual char[] GetChars(
byte[] bytes
)
public:
virtual array<wchar_t>^ GetChars(
array<unsigned char>^ bytes
)
abstract GetChars :
bytes:byte[] -> char[]
override GetChars :
bytes:byte[] -> char[]
public function GetChars(
bytes : byte[]
) : char[]
Parameters
- bytes
Type: array<System. . :: . .Byte> [] () [] []
The byte array containing the sequence of bytes to decode.
Return Value
Type: array<System. . :: . .Char> [] () [] []
A character array containing the results of decoding the specified sequence of bytes.
Remarks
Encoding..::..GetChars gets characters from an input byte sequence. Encoding..::..GetChars is different than Decoder.GetChars because Encoding expects discrete conversions, while Decoder is designed for multiple passes on a single input stream.
