is const jchar * null terminated string in c++?

843829Sep 13 2010 — edited Sep 13 2010
hi,

i read through the complete JNI documentation.

i searched all possible srcs to know "is const jchar * string returned by method GetStringChars(JString,NULL) to c++ declared in jni.h is NULL terminated or not ?" but i couldn't find it.

please help me.

because i am using this const jchar * string directly in my c++ code by just casting it to (const WCHAR *)
sometimes it is crashing the jvm for no reason sorry! i dont know the reason.

No.
by just casting it to (const WCHAR *)
That of course is unlikely to be correct regardless of whether it was null terminated or not.
