Date: Sat, 29 Oct 2005 13:24:34 +1300	[thread overview]

Hi,

I notice than caml_copy_string only works with null terminated
C-strings. What is the alternative way to copy a random amount of
char* data that contains embedded nulls into an ocaml string (knowing
the length of the data)?

Also, out of curiosity: does caml_copy_string reference the string
itself, or does it make a full copy of it (no sharing)? IE, does
modification of the C-string affect the ocaml string?

Jonathan
