- <note>
- <p>
- Functionality in this module generally assumes valid input and
- does not necessarily fail on input that does not use a valid
- encoding. You can validate the encoding of a filename using
- <seealso marker="stdlib:filename#validate/1">filename:validate/1</seealso>.
- </p>
- <p>
- File operations used to accept filenames containing
- null characters (integer value zero). This caused
- the name to be truncated at the first null character.
- Filenames containing null characters inside the filename
- are now <em>rejected</em> and will cause primitive
- file operations fail.
- </p>
- </note>
- <warning><p>
- Currently null characters at the end of the filename
- will be accepted by primitive file operations. Such
- filenames are however still documented as invalid. The
- implementation will also change in the future and
- reject such filenames.
