The moment I do ```ruby uri = "http://b�cher.ch" URI.escape uri (irb):5: warning: URI.escape "http://b%C3%BCcher.ch" ``` I get that warning. Rubocop also tells me: """ URI.escape method is obsolete and should not be used. Instead, use CGI.escape, URI.encode_www_form or URI.encode_www_form_component depending on your specific use case. """ However, none of the suggestions does the same as `URI.escape`. ```ruby CGI.escape uri => "http%3A%2F%2Fb%C3%BCcher.ch" URI.encode_www_form_component uri => "http%3A%2F%2Fb%C3%BCcher.ch" URI.encode_www_form uri Traceback (most recent call last): NoMethodError (undefined method `map' for "http://b�cher.ch":String) Did you mean? tap ``` So my question is: why is this being deprecated? And if there's still reason, what to exactly replace it for, so I can keep the exact same behaviour? -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
