string:	Pointer $\to$ %

Parameter	Type	Description
s	%	A libaldor string
p	Pointer	A null-terminated C-string

Description

Use those functions to safely convert between null-terminated returned or needed by C-functions and libaldor strings. Those functions have no effect in the release version of libaldor, but they are necessary when using the debug version, so it is recommended to use them in all cases. The C-type char* should be replaced by Pointer in the prototypes when using C-functions in libaldor clients.
