When require fails, is cmd.exe using codepage 936? What happens when you `chcp 65001` in cmd.exe but do not encode `$LOAD_PATH` to utf-8? ---------------------------------------- Bug #8677: $LOAD_PATH did not encoded into the "internal encoding" https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8677#change-40636 Author: jiayp@glodon.com (��� ������) Status: Open Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: core Target version: ruby -v: ruby 2.0.0p277 (2013-07-23 revision 42121) [i386-mingw32] Backport: 1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: UNKNOWN =begin When I use utf-8 as the internal encoding, and I require some file with Chinese name,and the require failure with: (({E:/code/rubyinstaller-master/sandbox/ruby19_mingw/lib/ruby/2.0.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:51:in `require': incompatible character encodings: UTF-8 and GBK (Encoding::CompatibilityError)})) I encode the $LOAD_PATH to utf-8 encoding And the problem gone. So I think we should encoding the $LOAD_PATH into the internal encoding. Is it right? If so,I will try to create a patch.I not,please tell me the right way. thanks a lot =end -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
