<h1>Mono Internals</h1>
<p>This section documents some of the internal APIs used
inside Mono that developers extending or altering Mono might
want to use.
<h2>Strings</h2>
<h3>Other Encodings</h3>
<p>These routines are used when coping with strings that come
from Mono's environment, and might be encoded in one or more
of the external encodings.
<p>For example, some file systems might historically contain a
mix of file names with both old and new encodings, typically
UTF8 for new files, and the old files would be encoded in an 8
bit character set (ISO-8859-1 for example).
<p>These routines try a number of encodings, those specified
in the <tt>MONO_ENCODINGS</tt> environment variable and return
unicode strings that can be used internally.
<p>See the mono(1) man page for more details.

metadata.c to lock access to the shared hashtables inside the
MonoImage.
