With all the criticism I normally have for Rust, I must say that its type safe handling of UTF-8 and its unambiguous distinction between byte strings and UTF-8 strings are extremely helpful in handling situations mentioned in the article correctly (and also efficiently). Yes it's a pain, but the way the standard library designed its types force you to handle conversions correctly, for example when byte arrays are converted to UTF-8 strings and may contain invalid UTF-8 sequences. |
