carob encoding is flawed: requires an UTF8 locale + does not handle nulls
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CAROB-49
URL: https://forge.continuent.org/jira/browse/CAROB-49
Project: Carob
Type: Bug
Components: C++ API
Reporter: Marc Herbert
Assigned to: Marc Herbert
To communicate with the controller, wstrings are converted from/to UTF8 using
the default encoding functions from the C-library (like wcsrtombs), but those
functions actually do convert to UTF8 ONLY if the current locale is an UTF8
one. Else encoding errors occur.
Another issue is that these functions cannot handle nulls inside strings (It
seems to currently trigger an OutOfMemory error on the controller).
