Number of bytes in UTF8 build

[Igor Korot]

Hi, ALL,
According to http://wiki.wxwidgets.org/Development:_UTF-8_Support, part "

UTF-8 based wxString implementation", length() return " number of
characters, not the length of C string used to represent it", and not
number of bytes.


How do I get number of bytes in a string in a UTF8 build?

The question comes from the fact that XmbTextExtents() third parameter takes
number of bytes. (ref.
http://www.x.org/archive/X11R7.5/doc/man/man3/XmbTextExtents.3.html).

Thank you.

Using wxString::utf8_str().length().
