Locale-Sensitive C# Property

using System.Text

Encoding.ASCII;

Internationalization (I18n) Property Overview

Retrieves an encoding for the ASCII (7-bit) format.

See Microsoft's MSDN online documentation for more information.

I18n Issues

ASCII as a character set is largely inadequate for internationalized applications because it can be used to encode only English characters. Consider using Encoding.Unicode or Encoding.UTF8 instead.

As a developer, you might have good reason to use the Encoding.ASCII property; however Globalyzer will detect it anyway. If you have determined that the call does not pose I18n problems, you can uncheck the method in the Locale-Sensitive Method list so that Globalyzer will ignore it during the next scan of your source code.
