Hi Michael,

Le 16/10/2011 02:09, Michael Kerrisk a écrit :

and you meant in both cases to change "null wide" to
"null", right?

Sure, sorry about that.

But, more generally, I think you are saying that there were some
pieces of my older e9c23bc636426366d659809bc99cd84661e86464 that
incorrectly changed "[terminating] null character" to "[terminating]
null wide character", right?

I didn't checked them all (yet), but your example bellow seems to concur
with that assumption.

I suspect that the first of my changes to mbstowcs.3 below was
also incorrect. Can you confirm?

 The multibyte string has been completely converted, including the
-terminating \(aq\\0\(aq.
+terminating null wide character (\(aq\\0\(aq).

The change is indeed wrong, since \(aq\\0\(aq (i.e. '\0') is the
terminating null byte (or character, but I think you tried to
consistently use “byte” in your last changes), which is different from
L\(aq\\0\(aq (i.e. L'\0'), the terminating null wide character.

PS See also 3c81e148a228550b4ce3d20a9c68ce0eb91cef07, which I just
pushed (to github). Do you agree with that change?

Given the context (wide → multibyte), I agree that the “terminating
null” in the destination string should be the terminating null byte
('\0'), but I didn't check the source code, or didn't test it either
(just came across the previous inconsistencies while updating the French
translations of these pages).

Regards

David
