James M Snell commented on ABDERA-150:
--------------------------------------
The Sanitizer is not, and was never, intended to provide percent-encoding. The
point of the sanitizer is to take an input string and make it reasonably
suitable for use as a segment of a URL. The goal is to produce more user
friendly URLs and "foo_bar" is more friendly than "foo%20bar". If you need
"foo%20bar" then use the EncodingUtil class or the java.net.URLEncoder to
produce a properly percent-encoded string.
> EncodingUtil.sanitize() behavior has changed
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ABDERA-150
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ABDERA-150
> Project: Abdera
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.4.0
> Reporter: Todd Wells
>
> In the 3.0 client, EncodingUtil.sanitize() would escape a space in a String
> correctly -- with "%20". Now it replaces it with an underbar ("_").
> Sanitizer.sanitize() does the same thing. So existing code that depended on
> this method is now broken.
> For example when using Abdera with Mule Galaxy, it has a default URL that
> includes a space for it's atom feeds "Default Workspace", so the Abdera
> sanitizer couldn't be used reliably since it would make this
> "Default_Workspace". And looking at the code, sanitize only allows to to
> specify a particular slug to replace all undesired characters with -- so
> blindly saying replace with "%20" means that all undesired characters would
> be replaced with that, rather than with the proper HTML encoding.
