Additional Information
strdowncase
is Unicode (UTF-8) compliant and will work with Unicode or plain ASCII text fields.- If passed a string argument that is not legal Unicode, it will by default signal an error (configurable as a user preference).
- A corresponding function
bstrdowncase
can be used with non-Unicode strings (e.g., binary or legacy encodings). - Generic (non-language-specific) Unicode case conversion is used.
