Details

http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/intl/uconv/public/nsIUnicodeDecoder.h#64 has a (deprecated) NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_INPUT define. http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/intl/uconv/public/nsIUnicodeDecoder.h#146 says that that error will be thrown for illegal input. However, only one decoder actually uses that error: http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/search?string=error_illegal_in I'm not sure what the others return, although the UTF-8 one uses NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED. It would be nice if the documentation was updated and if the implementations were consistent.
