bufs and utf8

2015-08-31 Thread mt1957
Hi, I can not do the following; my Buf $b = 'abc'.encode; Type check failed in assignment to '$b'; expected 'Buf' but got 'utf8' But I can do this; my Buf $b = 'abc'.encode ~ Buf.new(); Buf:0x<61 62 63> Does the concatenation convert utf8 into Buf? Will there be a problem when it is converted
