Description

FromUtf8(), utf8len()... functions raise and exception when char *s is NULL.

The reason is that strlen(NULL) raises an exception.

This affects to ToUpper(const char*) functions.

Should FromUtf8() or ToUpper() check this or is it a matter of the programmer?

I think that these functions are the same category w.r.t. input const char* parameter as strlen. Therefore IMO it is not a bug, you should not pass NULL pointer there.

I agree. It seems ok.
