IdnMapping.GetAscii Method

Definition

Encodes a string of domain name labels that include Unicode characters outside the US-ASCII character range to a string of displayable Unicode characters in the US-ASCII character range (U+0020 to U+007E). The string is formatted according to the IDNA standard.

Overloads

GetAscii(String)

Encodes a string of domain name labels that consist of Unicode characters to a string of displayable Unicode characters in the US-ASCII character range. The string is formatted according to the IDNA standard.

GetAscii(String, Int32)

Encodes a substring of domain name labels that include Unicode characters outside the US-ASCII character range. The substring is converted to a string of displayable Unicode characters in the US-ASCII character range and is formatted according to the IDNA standard.

GetAscii(String, Int32, Int32)

Encodes the specified number of characters in a substring of domain name labels that include Unicode characters outside the US-ASCII character range. The substring is converted to a string of displayable Unicode characters in the US-ASCII character range and is formatted according to the IDNA standard.

Encodes a string of domain name labels that consist of Unicode characters to a string of displayable Unicode characters in the US-ASCII character range. The string is formatted according to the IDNA standard.

public:
 System::String ^ GetAscii(System::String ^ unicode);
public string GetAscii (string unicode);
member this.GetAscii : string -> string
Public Function GetAscii (unicode As String) As String

Parameters

unicode
String

The string to convert, which consists of one or more domain name labels delimited with label separators.

Returns

The equivalent of the string specified by the unicode parameter, consisting of displayable Unicode characters in the US-ASCII character range (U+0020 to U+007E) and formatted according to the IDNA standard.

Exceptions

unicode is null.

unicode is invalid based on the AllowUnassigned and UseStd3AsciiRules properties, and the IDNA standard.

Examples

The following example uses the GetAscii(String) method to convert an array of internationalized domain names to Punycode, which is an encoded equivalent that consists of characters in the US-ASCII character range. The GetUnicode(String) method then converts the Punycode domain name back into the original domain name, but replaces the original label separators with the standard label separator.

Remarks

The unicode parameter specifies a string of one or more labels that consist of valid Unicode characters. The labels are separated by label separators. The unicode parameter cannot begin with a label separator, but it can include and optionally end with a separator. The label separators are FULL STOP (period, U+002E), IDEOGRAPHIC FULL STOP (U+3002), FULLWIDTH FULL STOP (U+FF0E), and HALFWIDTH IDEOGRAPHIC FULL STOP (U+FF61). For example, the domain name "www.adatum.com" consists of the labels, "www", "adatum", and "com", separated by periods.

A label cannot contain any of the following characters:

The GetAscii method converts all label separators to FULL STOP (period, U+002E).

If unicode contains no characters outside the US-ASCII character range and no characters within the US-ASCII character range are prohibited, the method returns unicode unchanged.

Notes to Callers

In the .NET Framework 4.5, the IdnMapping class supports different versions of the IDNA standard, depending on the operating system in use:

See Unicode Technical Standard #46: IDNA Compatibility Processing for the differences in the way these standards handle particular sets of characters.

Source:

Source:
IdnMapping.cs

Encodes a substring of domain name labels that include Unicode characters outside the US-ASCII character range. The substring is converted to a string of displayable Unicode characters in the US-ASCII character range and is formatted according to the IDNA standard.

public:
 System::String ^ GetAscii(System::String ^ unicode, int index);
public string GetAscii (string unicode, int index);
member this.GetAscii : string * int -> string
Public Function GetAscii (unicode As String, index As Integer) As String

Parameters

unicode
String

The string to convert, which consists of one or more domain name labels delimited with label separators.

index
Int32

A zero-based offset into unicode that specifies the start of the substring to convert. The conversion operation continues to the end of the unicode string.

Returns

The equivalent of the substring specified by the unicode and index parameters, consisting of displayable Unicode characters in the US-ASCII character range (U+0020 to U+007E) and formatted according to the IDNA standard.

Exceptions

unicode is null.

index is less than zero.

-or-

index is greater than the length of unicode.

unicode is invalid based on the AllowUnassigned and UseStd3AsciiRules properties, and the IDNA standard.

Remarks

The unicode and index parameters define a substring with one or more labels that consist of valid Unicode characters. The labels are separated by label separators. The first character of the substring cannot begin with a label separator, but it can include and optionally end with a separator. The label separators are FULL STOP (period, U+002E), IDEOGRAPHIC FULL STOP (U+3002), FULLWIDTH FULL STOP (U+FF0E), and HALFWIDTH IDEOGRAPHIC FULL STOP (U+FF61). For example, the domain name "www.adatum.com" consists of the labels, "www", "adatum", and "com", separated by periods.

public:

public string GetAscii (string unicode, int index, int count);
member this.GetAscii : string * int * int -> string
Public Function GetAscii (unicode As String, index As Integer, count As Integer) As String

Parameters

unicode
String

The string to convert, which consists of one or more domain name labels delimited with label separators.

index
Int32

A zero-based offset into unicode that specifies the start of the substring.

count
Int32

The number of characters to convert in the substring that starts at the position specified by index in the unicode string.

Returns

The equivalent of the substring specified by the unicode, index, and count parameters, consisting of displayable Unicode characters in the US-ASCII character range (U+0020 to U+007E) and formatted according to the IDNA standard.

Exceptions

unicode is null.

index or count is less than zero.

-or-

index is greater than the length of unicode.

-or-

index is greater than the length of unicode minus count.

unicode is invalid based on the AllowUnassigned and UseStd3AsciiRules properties, and the IDNA standard.

Examples

The following example uses the GetAscii(String, Int32, Int32) method to convert an internationalized domain name to a domain name that complies with the IDNA standard. The GetUnicode(String, Int32, Int32) method then converts the standardized domain name back into the original domain name, but replaces the original label separators with the standard label separator.

// This example demonstrates the GetAscii and GetUnicode methods.
// For sake of illustration, this example uses the most complex
// form of those methods, not the most convenient.

Remarks

The Unicode, index, and count parameters define a substring with one or more labels that consist of valid Unicode characters. The labels are separated by label separators. The first character of the substring cannot begin with a label separator, but it can include and optionally end with a separator. The label separators are FULL STOP (period, U+002E), IDEOGRAPHIC FULL STOP (U+3002), FULLWIDTH FULL STOP (U+FF0E), and HALFWIDTH IDEOGRAPHIC FULL STOP (U+FF61). For example, the domain name "www.adatum.com" consists of the labels, "www", "adatum", and "com", separated by periods.

A label cannot contain any of the following characters:

The GetAscii method converts all label separators to FULL STOP (period, U+002E). If the substring contains no characters outside the US-ASCII character range, and no characters within the US-ASCII character range are prohibited, the method returns the substring unchanged.

Notes to Callers

In the .NET Framework 4.5, the IdnMapping class supports different versions of the IDNA standard, depending on the operating system in use:

See Unicode Technical Standard #46: IDNA Compatibility Processing for the differences in the way these standards handle particular sets of characters.
