IIRC, Ben said that it would be handled, but I'd like to have it clarified.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Is it correct to assume that a UnicodeEncoding is expected to return UnicodeParseResult.emptyInput when it sees a NUL character (thus stopping before the end of the buffer if necessary)?
