| <table class="syntaxTable">
| |
| <tr><th>%reason</th>
| |
| <td>This <var>TranslationExceptionReason</var> enumeration value describes the reason for the translation failure.
| |
| </td></tr>

| |
| <td>A reference to an instance of a <var>[[CharacterTranslationException_class|CharacterTranslationException]]</var> object.

| ==Usage notes==
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>A <var>TranslationExceptionReason</var> enumeration may have one of the following values:
| |
| <dl>
| |
| <dt>InvalidEncoding
| |
| <dd>An example of invalid encoding is UTF-16 string input to <var>[[Utf16ToUnicode (String function)|Utf16ToUnicode]]</var> that contains bytes whose hexadecimal value is D800 (which is in the surrogates range).
| |
| <dt>InvalidCharacterReference
| |
| <dd>An XML-style hexadecimal character reference (for example, <code>&amp;#x2122;</code> for the trademark character) may validly represent a [[Unicode]] character to be translated. Any other string that begins with by an ampersand (&) &mdash; except the string <code>&amp;amp;</code> &mdash; might cause an exception explained by an <var class="term">InvalidCharacterReference</var> enumeration.
| |
| <p>For example, such an exception occurs if <var>[[EbcdicToUnicode (String function)|EbcdicToUnicode]]</var> is called, the method argument is <code>CharacterDecode=True</code>, and the method input contains an ampersand followed by a space.</p>
| |
| <dt>UntranslatableCharacter
| |
| <dd>The following are examples of untranslatable characters (with the translation tables as delivered by Sirius):
| |
| <ul>
| |
| <li>The EBCDIC input to the <var>[[EbcdicToUnicode_(String_function)|EbcdicToUnicode]]</var> method contains a byte whose hexadecimal value is X'FF.
| |
| <li>The Unicode input to <var>[[UnicodeToEbcdic (Unicode function)|UnicodeToEbcdic]]</var> contains one of the many [[Unicode]] characters that is not translated to an EBCDIC character (for example, U+20AC, the Euro currency symbol).
| |
| </ul>
| |
| </dl>
| |
| <li>As with all enumerations, you use the <code>ToString</code> method to convert an enumeration value to a character string whose value is the name of the enumeration value.
| |
| </ul>
