( Oops, hit wrong button )
While working on making some adjustments to code that has been developed for
OSX/iOS that would allow it to be portable to Linux, we are seeing a behavior
that is causing some confusion. I’m not sure it is a bug, it may well be
working as designed.
At issue the following code: (where value is an UnsafeMutablePointer<void>
containing a pointer to a MacOSRomanStringEncoding of the string ‘hello’)
let data : NSData = NSData.init(bytes:value, length:len)
let s : String = String.init(data:data,
encoding:NSMacOSRomanStringEncoding)!
print("Value: \(s)")
On OSX, this results in a print of:
Value: hello
While on Linux it results in a print of:
Value: (Foundation.NSData, 30)
Is this an intentional design change, or is our simple test case written wrong,
or something equally stupid?
