## Interface Encoding

- All Known Implementing Classes:
    CharsetEncoding, EncodingWithBOM, Native2ASCIIEncoding

      public interface Encoding

  An interface to represent an encoding. An encoding is a mapping between a character stream and a byte stream. It is like java.nio.charset.Charset but has slightly different form. This can represents some extended encodings like UTF-8Y which drops (inserts) the BOM bytes before actual decoding (encoding). This also enables to add some extended encodings such as ASCII representation used by Java property files.

    - #### getTextReader

          @Nonnull
          java.io.Reader getTextReader(@Nonnull
                                                java.io.InputStream in)
                                         throws java.io.IOException

      Map an InputStream to a Reader. Decode-error while reading from this Reader should be reported by throwing an IOException.
      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException`

    - #### getTextWriter

          @Nonnull
          java.io.Writer getTextWriter(@Nonnull
                                                java.io.OutputStream out)
                                         throws java.io.IOException

      Map an OutputStream to a Writer. Encode-error while writing to this Writer should be reported by throwing an IOException.
      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException`

    - #### getPermissiveTextReader

          @Nonnull
          java.io.Reader getPermissiveTextReader(@Nonnull
                                                          java.io.InputStream in)
                                                   throws java.io.IOException

      Map an InputStream to a Reader. Decode-error while reading from this Reader should be ignored or replaced.
      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException`
