Provides the highest level of abstraction for Encoders. This is the sister interface of com.good.gd.apache.commons.codec.Decoder. Every implementation of Encoder provides this common generic interface whic allows a user to pass a generic Object to any Encoder implementation in the codec package.
The following notice applies to the original API on which this API is based, and to its documentation. The documentation of this API has been revised from the original.
