Text Encoding Name Selector

You use a selector for the GetTextEncodingName function to indicate which part of an encoding name you want to determine. The text encoding name selector is defined by the TextEncodingNameSelector data type:

typedef UInt32 TextEncodingNameSelector;

The following enumeration defines the allowable constants for selecting parts of encoding names:

enum {
    kTextEncodingFullName       = 0,
    kTextEncodingBaseName       = 1,
    kTextEncodingVariantName    = 2,
    kTextEncodingFormatName     = 3
};

Constant descriptions

kTextEncodingFullName
Selector that requests the full name of the text encoding.

kTextEncodingBaseName
Requests the name of the base encoding.

kTextEncodingVariantName
Requests the name of the encoding variant, if available.

kTextEncodingFormatName
Requests the name of the encoding format, if available.
