[lucy-issues] [jira] [Created] (LUCY-294) Nul-terminate C strings in test code

Marvin Humphrey created LUCY-294:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Nul-terminate C strings in test code
                 Key: LUCY-294
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCY-294
             Project: Lucy
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Test
            Reporter: Marvin Humphrey
            Assignee: Marvin Humphrey
            Priority: Minor


The behavior of String's `Get_Ptr8` method has changed: it now consistently returns a memory buffer which is not nul-terminated.

Lucy uses `Get_Ptr8` in numerous places.  All of the runtime usages are OK, but there are a number of test cases that improperly assume that it returns a nul-terminated C string.

The solution is to use `To_Utf8` instead, which returns a newly allocated nul-terminated buffer.
