May I suggest adding the following functions to Phobos? I'm using them to convert strings from the Unicode versions of the Win32 API.


int strlen(wchar* s)
{
    int len = 0;
    wchar *c = &s[0];
    while (*c++) ++len;
    return len;
}

wchar[] toString(wchar* s)
{
    return s ? s[0 .. strlen(s)] : cast(wchar[])null;
}

This functions were converted from their "char" equivalents in std.string.


Thanks.

What's wrong with wcslen?

Or, if you want an overload,

    int strlen(wchar *s)
    {
        return wcslen(s);
    }

?

Obviously wcslen is not obvious <g>

Didn't knew it existed! Well I just really need the toString for wchars:

wchar[] toString(wchar* s)
{
    return s ? s[0 .. wcslen(s)] : cast(wchar[])null;
}
