You don't need the NSMutableData:

NSString *str = [[[NSString alloc] initWithBytes:s length:len encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding] autorelease];

...assuming it's really UTF-8. If it's wchar_t and you know it's Unicode, use NSUTF32StringEncoding (only available on 10.5 or later). If it's UTF-16, use stringWithCharacters:length:.

Yes - thanks - that works:

NSMutableData *data = [NSMutableData dataWithBytes:(void *)s length:len];
//append a NULL unicode char
XML_Char nullChar = 0;
XML_Char *nullCharPtr = &nullChar;
int nullCharLen = sizeof nullChar;
[data appendBytes:nullCharPtr length:nullCharLen];
NSString *str = [[[NSString alloc] initWithData:data encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding] autorelease];
