"a string".getBytes("ASCII")

hello there,

the encoding page in the JDK1.4.1 documentation states that "ASCII" is a 
supported encoding (see <.../docs/guide/intl/encoding.doc.html>).

i dont see in the Mauve String test classes any test for things like "a 
string".getBytes("ASCII") --and more generally getBytes() for supported 
encodings.

is it ok to add some methods to the 
gnu/testlet/java/lang/String/getBytes.java class to test ASCII and 
other encodings?  or may be create a new class 'encoding14.java' to 
test all 1.4 supported encodings?


thoughts?

Probably add to getBytes.java if the TAGS java version is okay in the
TAGS line, otherwise create a new file with the appropriate TAGS line
and probably called getBytes<version>.java, such as getBytes14.java.

My $0.02,
