Constructs a text decoder for the given codec .

Constructs a text decoder for the given codec and conversion flags .

PySide2.QtCore.QTextDecoder.hasFailure()

Return type:

bool

Determines whether the decoder encountered a failure while decoding the input. If an error was encountered, the produced result is undefined, and gets converted as according to the conversion flags.

PySide2.QtCore.QTextDecoder.needsMoreData()

Return type:

bool

Determines whether the decoder needs more bytes to continue decoding. That is, this signifies that the input string ended in the middle of a multi-byte sequence. Note that it’s possible some codecs do not report this.
