[jruby-dev] [jira] (JRUBY-6976) byte[] should have a to_s method

[Thomas E Enebo (JIRA)]

Thomas E Enebo created JRUBY-6976 byte[] should have a to_s method Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Thomas E Enebo Created: 29/Oct/12 5:14 PM Description: byte[] are unknown on which encoding they represent but they still should have a to_s method. We decided to make one as ASCII8BIT(or iso88591) which is basically a raw string. Users can then force_encoding if they know what the real encoding it. In practical terms, most byte[] in common usage seems to be raw data. So this should simplify life on the Ruby side of the wall. Project: JRuby Priority: Major Reporter: Thomas E Enebo
