document with macro
jc_bourg, are you using LO Basic, a random file and the "put"
operation?
OpenOffice.org Macros Explained (OOME_3_0.pdf,
<<a href="http://www.pitonyak.org/OOME_3_0.pdf">http://www.pitonyak.org/OOME_3_0.pdf</a>>), section 8.8 "Reading and
writing data" says of random files and operation "put":
If the data variable is a Variant, an integer identifying the data
type precedes the data.
and
When Put places a string as a Variant, it actually writes the
VarType, the string length, and then the string.
My experiment in a local build of commit e54ff4c1 on debian-buster
gives results like Andrew Pitonyak described. Neither a String nor a
Variant shows truncation of the last two characters. Macro "one" in
the attached demo01.odt is the experiment.
I am setting status NEEDINFO. jc_bourg, please set bug status back to
UNCONFIRMED when you reply.</pre>
