Any chance to have an option to also escape null byte in String.replace_invalid ??
In utf-8 <<0>> is a valid character but there are problems with it: - it's invalid in modified utf-8 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8#Modified_UTF-8 - postgres does not accept text containing it, you get an error character not in repertoire - it's sometimes used as a string terminating sequence - it cli apps when you try to get the actual string width it's problematic: iex> String.length(<<0>>) 1 iex> IO.puts("-" <> <<0>> <> "-") -^ - <- it has a width of 2 characters when printed in elixir. Some specifications also say to skip printing it at all. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elixir-lang-core" group.
