Yes. But given I'm reading the file (binary data) in raw mode, how would they get "silently encoded"?

    What file? I was talking about using SvPVX to access the bytes of a string of bytes.

      And where do the bytes of the string come from?

        You haven't specified. All you said was "I know the data I'd be passing are byte strings", implying you wouldn't be running into any problems because you always pass byte strings. I pointed out that's not true.

        Are you going somewhere with this? If you have something to say, say it. If you have a question to ask, ask it.
