Thread Safety

All public static members of this type are safe for multithreaded operations. No instance members are guaranteed to be thread safe.

Remarks

System.Text.ASCIIEncoding encodes characters as single 7-bit ASCII characters. This encoding supports Unicode code points between U+0000 and U+007F, inclusive.

Note: The limited range of code points supported by System.Text.ASCIIEncoding makes ASCII inadequate for many internationalized applications. System.Text.UTF8Encoding and System.Text.UnicodeEncoding provide encodings that are more suitable for internationalized applications.
