     * The encodings table passed to this constructor <b>needs</b> to be 8192
     * bytes long, or (in other words), must contain exactly 65536 bits.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * As in the Java Programming Language a <code>char</code> can assume
     * values between 0 (zero) and 65535 (inclusive), each bit in the specified
     * array refers to a specific <code>char</code> value.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * When this specific bit is set to 1 (one or true) we assume that the
     * charset <b>can</b> encode the given character, while when the bit is
     * set to 0 (zero or false), the character cannot be represented using
     * this <code>Charset</code>.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * For example, the <b>US-ASCII</b> <code>Charset</code> can represent
     * only Java characters between 0 (zero) and 255 (inclusive), therefore
     * the specified byte array will contain only 256 true bits.
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * To check if a character can be encoded by this <code>Charset</code>,
     * given &quot;<code>c</code>&quot; as the character to verify, one
     * can write this simple formula:
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * <nobr><code>((encoding[c >> 3] & (1 << (c & 0x07))) > 0)
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * If the result of this operation is 0 (zero) the bit was set to zero,
     * and therefore &quot;<code>c</code>&quot; cannot be represented in
     * this <code>Charset</code>, while if the result is greater than 0 (zero)
     * the character &quot;<code>c</code>&quot; can actually be represented
     * by this <code>Charset</code>
     * </p>
     *
     * @param name This <code>Charset</code> name.
     * @param aliases This <code>Charset</code> alias names.
     * @param encoding This <code>Charset</code> encoding table as specified
     *                 above.
     * @throws NullPointerException If one of the arguments is <b>null</b>.
     * @throws IllegalArgumentException If the length of the encoding table
     *                                  is <b>not</b> 8192 precisely.
