+ * \file
+ * \brief C API: Charset Detection API
+ *
+ * This API provides a facility for detecting the
+ * charset or encoding of character data in an unknown text format.
+ * The input data can be from an array of bytes.
+ * <p>
+ * Character set detection is at best an imprecise operation. The detection
+ * process will attempt to identify the charset that best matches the characteristics
+ * of the byte data, but the process is partly statistical in nature, and
+ * the results can not be guaranteed to always be correct.
+ * <p>
+ * For best accuracy in charset detection, the input data should be primarily
+ * in a single language, and a minimum of a few hundred bytes worth of plain text
+ * in the language are needed. The detection process will attempt to
+ * ignore html or xml style markup that could otherwise obscure the content.
