This should rather be asked on the i18n mailing list if not on php-general. But as you already asked: > I've got an application that processes both textual and binary data.

Is there any > way then to still get the exact size, in bytes, of a 'string' of binary > data? If you write the application, why do you want to depend on a certain php.ini setting? I won't use overloading at all but call the mbstring functions directly where appropriate and the "original" string function else. Please respond to one of the above mentioned lists.
