abstract class

This class converts byte arrays to character arrays using the encoding class from which it was constructed (a decoder is returned by the GetDecoder( ) method of an Encoding subclass). Decoder saves its state between calls to GetChars( ) , so leftover bytes from previous input byte arrays are remembered and used in subsequent calls.

 public abstract class  Decoder  { // Protected Constructors    protected  Decoder  ( ); // Public Instance Methods    public abstract int  GetCharCount  (byte[ ]   bytes   , int   index   , int   count   );    public abstract int  GetChars  (byte[ ]   bytes   , int   byteIndex   ,  int   byteCount   , char[ ]   chars   ,          int   charIndex   ); }
