I have a byte array containing encoded bytes as

Byte* encodedBytes;

This contains encoded bytes. Now this array is assigned to an char pointer by typecasting.

 char *data = (char*)encodedBytes;

Now Is there any API that can give me the size of data ? I can't use strlen() because encoded bytes may contain null character in between as well .

Basically, no, there isn't. – fuz Dec 20 '15 at 11:45
`encodedBytes` is not an array but (just) as pointer to a `Byte`. – alk Dec 20 '15 at 11:46
