NAME

6       Binary::pokeString - Write a String of binary data.
7

SYNOPSIS

9       Void pokeString( Binary block, Int offset, String val )
10

ARGUMENTS

12       block The binary block
13
14       offset The location to write to (starting from zero)
15
16       val The String to write.
17

DESCRIPTION

19       Poke the string val into the block, starting at offset offset
20        An  Binary.OffsetOutOfRange  (3kaya)  exception  will  be thrown if it
21       attempts to access a value outside the block. Note that the String will
22       be stored in the block in UTF-8 encoding, not as raw Kaya chars, so you
23       need to use Builtins.byteLength (3kaya) to determine how much space you
24       need (and then add one for a terminating null byte).
