You can do
char c = 'a'
because 'a' is a Char.
You can't do
char c = (byte)'\xA0'; // a byte with the value of hexadecimal A0, not
letter 'a' in ASCII.
you need some decoding.
If I do,
byte b = (byte)'\xA0';
byte[] bytearray = { b };
char [] chararray = Encoding.UTF8.GetChars(bytearray);
int charCount = Encoding.UTF8.GetCharCount(bytearray);
then charCount = =0 // decoding fails
if I do
byte b = (byte)'\xA0';
byte zero = 0;
byte[] bytearray = { b, zero };
char [] chararray = Encoding.UTF8.GetChars(bytearray);
int charCount = Encoding.UTF8.GetCharCount(bytearray);
then charCount is 1. // decoding is successful.
if
byte b = (byte)'\x10'; // below 128, so ASCII range
byte[] bytearray = { b };
char [] chararray = Encoding.UTF8.GetChars(bytearray);
int charCount = Encoding.UTF8.GetCharCount(bytearray);
then charCount is 1. // decoding is successful.
Now, you see the problem.
