The use of UTIUtil.toUsingCharset?

[Sung-Gu <je...@apache.org>]

Hi,

I was asked to explain of the toUsingCharset method personally.

That's related to the issue of multi-byte letters...
(To use String and StringBuffer makes another issue.)
The first problem is the initial character set of
being stored or transfered.
The second problem is the display of that characters.

I'll have time to explain it with some architectual diagram later again.
^^;...

As you seem unable or unwilling to provide an example, I request from 
you a simple test case (to be integrated into the test suite) that tests 
the contract of this method.

Thanks

I am familiar with character encodings, Sung-Gu. But once more: please 
give an example of the use of that method.

Sure, the real material of the trouble guys is bytes, as you know...  ;)

I haven't even commented about any test cases...
just example.. ;)   sometime later...

And I think this topic is not in a hurry...
As mentioned, I will do it sometime later..
(I'm so much much lazy... )  :-p

Sung-Gu,

 From your diagram I do not see anything that is not supported by 
standard Java String handling. I still think this method is unnecessary.

Your "test case" does not contain a single assertion. Printing out 
garbage to the console doesn't make sense. PLEASE PROVIDE AN ORDINARY 
JUNIT TEST CASE!

Okay. Can you provide an example where I can see those problems and how 
this method tries to solve them?

Please do.

I still doubt that this method does anything useful.
