RefString.len


Description:

public RefString.len (string str, ssize_t len)

Since this function does not stop at nul bytes, it is the caller's responsibility to ensure that str has at least len addressable bytes.

Parameters:

len

length of str to use, or -1 if str is nul-terminated

Returns:

the newly created reference counted string
