I was writing a test today and QtTest told me: Actual (s) : ?12??? Expected (s2): ?12???
So I went, "duh, ok, it looks the same to me but what's behind those question marks". After a bit of changes [https://codereview.qt-project.org/76100], it now prints: Actual (s) : \u221212\u20A0\uD800\uDC00 Expected (s2): \u221212\u20AC\uD800\uDC00 Which tells me what I got wrong. Ok to submit this change then? It will make all toString(QString) print - all backslashes as \\ - the following characters as their escape sequences: \r, \n, \t, \b, \f - all other control characters (including 0x7f) as \u00XX - all other characters with \uXXXX, including text otherwise readable in the terminal in the locale One major advantage of this is that it does not depend on the locale codec being set up or even working, as the previous code did. So we get consistent results even if there's a bug in that. Is this ok? Should I also print quotes as \" ? And should I surround the string with quotes? Should I also do the same for QByteArray? Reading hex dumps isn't very nice. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center
