Subject: [ruby-core:45539] [ruby-trunk - Bug #6566] JSON.dump can generate invalid UTF-8 sequence


Issue #6566 has been updated by nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada).

File bug-6566.diff added

A bit simpler, it seems wrong that
  JSON.generate(["\xea"]).valid_encoding?
returns false.

I think this would be a bug in json generator, but what should happen
in this case?  Seems convert_UTF8_to_JSON_ASCII() wants to reject
invalid sequence.

Bug #6566: JSON.dump can generate invalid UTF-8 sequence

Look, in the following code JSON.dump outputs a sequence invalid as UTF-8.

  # -*- encoding: utf-8 -*-
  require 'json'
  IO.popen('hexdump -C', 'w') do |fp|
    JSON.dump(["\xea"], fp)
  end

RFC4627 says that to encode JSON as a Unicode is a "SHALL".  So this is an RFC violation.
