Hello, I am experiencing a (in my opinion) strange behavior:
var buf = crypto.randomBytes(0xf); var buf2 = new Buffer(buf.toString()); // returns false buf.toString() === buf2.toString() I assume that randomBytes generates some values which cannot be encoded to `utf-8` so that they are missing or require more bytes. But shouldn't utf8 use all eight bits of a byte? Is there a work around which allows to use utf-8 without having to worry about data integrity? PS: Using hex or base64 encoding works fine.
