) override

Parameters

The index position of the character in the input buffer. This parameter is ignored in this operation.

Return Value

This method is called again before the GetNextChar method has read all the characters in the replacement fallback buffer.

The GetBytes and Convert methods call Fallback if they encounter an unknown character in their input. If the return value of Fallback is true, the calling method can invoke the GetNextChar method to obtain each character in the replacement fallback buffer.
