Hello,

I try to load the dll as module but i can't find the way to use the class CharsetDetector, with issue result : New-Object: A constructor was not found. Cannot find an appropriate constructor for type UtfUnknown.CharsetDetector.

Have you any idea how to do it ?

Best regards

Hi, could you please provide an example?

Finally i found how to do it in a file script: 

Add-Type -Path .\UtfUnknown.dll
[UtfUnknown.CharsetDetector]::DetectFromFile($filePath)

This is a example for the method DetectFromFile. If you want only the code charset as result : 

Add-Type -Path .\UtfUnknown.dll
[UtfUnknown.CharsetDetector]::DetectFromFile($filePath).detected.EncodingName.ToString()

Refering in the xml to other methods, replace DetectFromFile method by the one you need !
