What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Call a python function from the JavaScript with a string parameter
containing null terminators
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Since Python and JavaScript are languages that treat strings like objects with
length attribute, and they both totally ignore all null terminators, when
passing a string from JS to python I expect the whole string to be copied, even
if it has null or other control characters in the middle.
Instead, when I pass a string with null character in the middle it stops
copying at the first null terminator, as if it was copied with strcpy.
The string built-in length attribute was ignored.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
latest on Ubuntu 10
Please provide any additional information below.
This behavior also makes it impossible to pass a buffer of bytes from JS to
python in a fast way, since Byte array is not supported.
