#39687: wcsrtombs with null dest pointer doesn't ignore len parameter Open Date: 2019-10-20 02:38 Last Update: 2019-10-20 02:38 URL for this Ticket: https://osdn.net//projects/mingw/ticket/39687 RSS feed for this Ticket: https://osdn.net/ticket/ticket_rss.php?group_id=3917&tid=39687 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Last Changes/Comment on this Ticket: 2019-10-20 02:38 Updated by: gallickgunner * New Ticket "wcsrtombs with null dest pointer doesn't ignore len parameter" created --------------------------------------------------------------------- Ticket Status: Reporter: gallickgunner Owner: (None) Type: Issues Status: Open Priority: 5 - Medium MileStone: (None) Component: GCC Severity: 5 - Medium Resolution: None --------------------------------------------------------------------- Ticket details: I'm using MinGW-gcc-6.3.0. The wcsrtombs() function as mentioned in the docs on cppreference (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/string/multibyte/wcsrtombs) should return the number of bytes that would have been written to src. However it doesn't do so on my end. It seems the implementation doesn't ignore the length parameter when dest is passed as NULL? A similar issue was reported and presumably fixed for the Mingw-w64 on the sourceforge site (https:// sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/mailman/message/34751152/) I apologize in advance if this is just an issue from my end or if any other info is missing.
