Null characters
Message objects handle null characters internally.
For example, message7
contains: This data has a <NULL> embedded NULL. NULL
is the null character. You can use the -cvtnull option with msgget to replace that null character with a more readable
replacement.
Input: msgcreate -class protocol -recover -type reply
Output: message7
Input: msginsert -cvtnull X message7 "this data has an X embedded NULL"
Output:
Input: msgget message7
Output: this data has an Ç embedded NULL
Input: msgget -cvtnull Z message7
Output: this data has an Z embedded NULL
Use any replacement character with the -cvtnull
option.
