Bill Dueber created JRUBY-6637:
----------------------------------
Summary: String encoding difference between jruby --1.9 and MRI
1.9 (force_encoding a no-op in this case?)
Key: JRUBY-6637
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-6637
Project: JRuby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Encoding
Affects Versions: JRuby 1.6.7, JRuby 1.7
Environment: OSX 10.6.8, jruby 1.7.0.dev (ruby-1.9.3-p139) (2012-04-24
6a30d22) (Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 1.6.0_31) [darwin-x86_64-java] and
Reporter: Bill Dueber
Priority: Minor
Attachments: encodings.rb
Strings seem to be unicode despite attempt to force another encoding under
jruby, but not MRI. e.g.
cp866 = "\x8D".force_encoding("IBM866") # "\x8D" under MRI, "\u008D" under
jruby
See the attached for a longer explanation and sample code from jrochkind
I don't understand why the attached script is problematic but the encoding
tests in the jruby source work.
Unfortunately, I don't really know what I'm doing -- just trying to patch a gem
and noticing the difference.
