Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
|
|
@itemize
|
|
@item
|
|
On AIX and Windows platforms, @code{wchar_t} is a 16-bit type and therefore cannot
|
|
accommodate all Unicode characters.
|
|
@item
|
|
The specification is not clear about whether this function should update the
|
|
conversion state when the first argument (the destination pointer) is NULL.
|
|
The glibc, MacOS X, FreeBSD implementations do update the state in this case.
|
|
For portability, when passing a NULL destination argument, it is best to pass
|
|
a pointer to a temporary copy of the conversion state.
