# New Ticket Created by Marvin Humphrey # Please include the string: [perl #80426] # in the subject line of all future correspondence about this issue. # <URL: http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=80426 > If the 'len' parameter to is_utf8_string() is 0, strlen() will be invoked on the supplied 's' parameter to calculate it. The same is true for is_ascii_string(), is_utf8_string_loc(), and is_utf8_string_loclen(). This behavior has existed for years, but is not documented in perlapi. The supplied patch amends the documentation for is_utf8_string() and is_ascii_string(); the other functions inherit their documentation from is_utf8_string() and thus do not require changes.Thread Previous
