public class MIME2Java
extends java.lang.Object

MIME2Java is a convenience class which handles conversions between MIME charset names and Java encoding names.

The supported XML encodings are the intersection of XML-supported code sets and those supported in JDK 1.1.

MIME charset names are used on xmlEncoding parameters to methods such as TXDocument#setEncoding and DTD#setEncoding.

Java encoding names are used on encoding parameters to methods such as TXDocument#printWithFormat and DTD#printExternal.
