| Allegro CL version 8.2 Unrevised from 8.1 to 8.2. 8.1 version |
Arguments: address
This function is obsolete and maintained in the
:ffcompat
compatibility module, which is loaded
automatically when this function is called. It has been replaced with
char*-strlen. Using char*-strlen means fewer modules
need be present in an image using this functionality.
Returns the length of the C string located at address. This function is useful when calling char*-to-string with the optional string argument specified. Since the length of the Lisp string provided as the receptacle of the C string is not modified, you may not know how much was copied from the C string without the aid of this function.
See ftype.htm for information on foreign types in Allegro CL and foreign-functions.htm for general information on foreign functions in Allegro CL.
