May 2, 2026 ยท View on GitHub

This crate provides additional functionality for OsStr and OsString, without resorting to panics or corruption for invalid UTF-8. Thus, familiar methods from str and String can be used.

GitHub Build Status

Usage

Add the following lines to your "Cargo.toml" file:

[dependencies]
os_str_bytes = "7.2"

See the documentation for available functionality and examples.

Rust version support

The minimum supported Rust toolchain version depends on the platform:

Target Target Triple Minimum Version
Fortanix *-fortanix-*-sgx nightly (sgx_platform)
HermitCore *-*-hermit nightly (rust-toolchain.toml)
SOLID *-*-solid_asp3(-*) 1.81.0
UEFI *-*-uefi nightly (uefi_std)
Unix Unix 1.81.0
WASI *-wasi* 1.81.0
WebAssembly wasm32-*-unknown 1.81.0
Windows *-*-windows-* 1.81.0
Xous *-*-xous-* 1.81.0

Minor version updates may increase these version requirements. However, the previous two Rust releases will always be supported. If the minimum Rust version must not be increased, use a tilde requirement to prevent updating this crate's minor version:

[dependencies]
os_str_bytes = "~7.2"
