NSStringEncoding -> NSCharacterSet?

Subject: NSStringEncoding -> NSCharacterSet?
From: Dan Wood <email@hidden>

I'm looking for some inspiration on how to figure out the NSCharacterSet of characters "covered" by a particular NSStringEncoding. (Or the Core Foundation equivalents, CFStringEncoding and CFCharacterSet).

For instance, something that would map:
	NSASCIIStringEncoding to the character set of 0..127,
	NSISOLatin1StringEncoding to 0....255 (I think)
	NSWindowsCP1251StringEncoding to the set unicode cyrillic characters,
	NSShiftJISStringEncoding to the set of Japanese characters,
	etc.

I am looking for this information so that I can take an arbitrary unicode string, destined for conversion to HTML, and know which characters do *not* fit in the specified NSStringEncoding, as those that need to be 'escaped' (like {).

It seems like there is very little exposed in the Cocoa/CF APIs to do this. Any hints?

Thanks,
Dan Wood
