Description

Returns an encoding for the ASCII character set.

System.SysUtils.TEncoding.ASCII returns an encoding for the ASCII character set.

The Return Value is an instance of type TMBCSEncoding.

Caution: System.SysUtils.TEncoding.ASCII is 7-bit ASCII and therefore is not compatible with UnicodeString, the default string type in RAD Studio. With a 7-bit character set, conversion from char to widechar (that is, Unicode) fails on any high-ASCII character.
