The strings stored in a data cell are +expected to be in UTF-8 format. This allows the continued use of gchar +pointers to pass around the strings. Processing the strings will require +conversion to unicode at times depending on the specific operation that +needs to be done on the UTF-8 coded strings. + +The string length value stored in a data cell is the length in bytes of that +string including the terminating NUL. + +Routines that want a string length for a UTF-8 coded string will be passed +the number of characters and not the number of bytes. If the number of bytes +is needed, the normal call to strlen() will work. + |
