	/// An abstract base class for implementing text encodings
	/// like UTF-8 or ISO 8859-1.
	///
	/// Subclasses must override the canonicalName(), isA(),
	/// characterMap() and convert() methods and need to be
	/// thread safe and stateless.
	///
	/// TextEncoding also provides static member functions
	/// for managing mappings from encoding names to
	/// TextEncoding objects.
