// Convenience functions for converting strings which may contain embedded

- // inLen is the length of the buffer including trailing NUL if any: if the
- // last 4 bytes of the buffer are all NULs, these functions are more
- // efficient as they avoid copying the string, but otherwise a copy is made
- // internally which could be quite bad for (very) long strings.
+ // inLen is the length of the buffer including trailing NUL if any or
+ // wxNO_LEN if the input is NUL-terminated.
//
// outLen receives, if not NULL, the length of the converted string or 0 if
// the conversion failed (returning 0 and not -1 in this case makes it
// difficult to distinguish between failed conversion and empty input but
- // this is done for backwards compatibility)
+ // this is done for backwards compatibility). Notice that the rules for
+ // whether outLen accounts or not for the last NUL are the same as for
+ // To/FromWChar() above: if inLen is specified, outLen is exactly the
+ // number of characters converted, whether the last one of them was NUL or
+ // not. But if inLen == wxNO_LEN then outLen doesn't account for the last
+ // NUL even though it is present.
