Would make sense to enable this patch in ruby 2.x in such situations where UTF-8 behavior has been requested explicitly? ---------------------------------------- Feature #12650: Use UTF-8 encoding for ENV on Windows https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/12650#change-59907 * Author: D��vis Mos��ns * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: ---------------------------------------- Windows environment variables supports Unicode (same wide WinAPI) and so there's no reason to limit ourselves to any codepage. Currently ENV would use locale's encoding (console's codepage) which obviously won't work correctly for characters outside of those codepages. I've attached a patch which implements this and fixes bug #9715 ---Files-------------------------------- 0001-Always-use-UTF-8-encoded-environment-on-Windows.patch (3.64 KB) -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
