Thanks for the reply,

I'm very thrilled to hear someone from Sri Lanka is working in OpenAFS!

I started to read the MSDN reference on the Safe String library,

>  Even though Microsoft

provides the source code to their implementation as part of the

Visual Studio C Runtime Library source code, you may not look at

their implementation for this project.


yes,  I also hope to implement the library using only the MSDN
documentation.

Thanks for the link on code conventions for OpenAFS. I will look on that.

I understand that there must be multi-byte support in
order facilitate Unicode versions. As you suggested single byte count
functions must be implemented first then extended to character count.

Thank you,

Regards,
Tharidu Fernando
