Hi Gerald!
First thanks for rc2! Long time no new release ;-(
Now the 'bug' report ;-|
I use UTF-8 since two weeks (and I REALLY like it! Everything works much better
than latin1) so I had to rename epchar.c.min to epchar.c before compilation.
This results in make test failing in the fourth test (because it checks
escaping which the epchar.c.min doesn't do).
I have a search page which uses a form to pass the search string to the result
page.
UTF-8 passed chars weren't converted to uppercase with uc(), all other chars
were...
After hours of reading perl docs about UTF-8 I found out that vars have an
UTF-8 yes/no flag (which seemes not to be set for $fdat).
In the page that displays the results I had to add the following line to make
things work:
*SNIP*
# get CGI var
$search = $fdat{'search'};
# perl doesn't set the 'UTF-8' flag although the variable is passed as UTF-8 so
set it manually
utf8::decode($search);
*SNIP*
I first thought that I have to use utf8::encode($search) but decode finally did
it.
I don't know the embperl internals...so maybe you can look into it if thats a
bug.
For all others who use UTF-8: here is the workaround ;-)
It would be better for newbies if perl Makefile.pl asks for UTF-8 and use
epchar.c.min for the compile instead of epchar.c.
OR (which would be the best approach in my opinion):
Make it configurable (per virtual host?!).
Everything else works like a charm (for over a year now) ;-).
With kind regards

Embperl is a system for building dynamic websites with Perl.
It gives you the power to embed Perl code in your HTML/XML documents and the
ability to build your Web site out of small reusable objects in an
object-oriented style.
Embperl has several features which are especially useful for creating
Websites, including dynamic tables, form field processing, URL
escaping/unescaping, session handling, caching, xslt transformation and
more.
See http://perl.apache.org/embperl/ (english) or http://www.ecos.de/embperl/
(german) for more information.
Enjoy
Gerald
