http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25768 Cannot parse, code guard errors ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-12-31 10:20 ------- It looks like Borland has a different implementation for wcstombs. >From the Visual C++ help: "size_t wcstombs( char *mbstr, const wchar_t *wcstr, size_t count ); If wcstombs successfully converts the multibyte string, it returns the number of bytes written into the multibyte output string, excluding the terminating NULL (if any). If the mbstr argument is NULL, wcstombs returns the required size of the destination string. If wcstombs encounters a wide character it cannot be convert to a multibyte character, it returns –1 cast to type size_t." >From the Borland help: "size_t wcstombs(char *s, const wchar_t *wcs, size_t n);The function stores a multibyte string, in successive elements of the array whose first element has the address s, by converting in turn each of the wide characters in the string wcs. The multibyte string begins in the initial conversion state. The function converts each wide character as if by calling wctomb (except that the conversion state stored for that function is unaffected). It stores no more than n bytes, stopping after it stores a null byte. It returns the number of bytes it stores, not counting the null byte, if all conversions are successful; otherwise, it returns -1" So, Borland doesn't have the behavior "if I give you a NULL target, tell me the size you need to do the conversion", that Xerces is relying on to be able to allocate just the right amount of memory. At this point, I would replace the usage of this function in favour of the Win32 API WideCharToMultiByte. Any objection from the other committers?
