It's different because now we use libxml2 instead of the old expat. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-28 17:27:00] mikx at mikx dot de This bug is not bogus in my oppionion (re-opening). WDDX deserialize isn't able to properly decode a valid utf-8 encoded and marked WDDX packet coming from another source (or written with a plain utf-8 text editor if you want). If i am wrong and this is expected behavior please give me a link to the documentation saying that an implicit conversion to latin1 is expected behavior. And please explain why and i which version of PHP this behavior changed - in PHP 4.3.9 it is different. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-17 17:45:24] mikx at mikx dot de Ilia, the data i have is already utf8 encoded inside the database. And as output 5 of 6 shows in my testcase even if i specify an utf-8 xml header on a valid utf-8 encoded packet wddx_deserialize automaticly decodes the data to latin1. This has nothing to do with wddx_serialize directly, but of course: double encoding something already in utf8 again would work if i only serialize and deserialize in php5. But it would produce a corrupted, double-utf-8-encoded wddx file not properly working with other wddx tools. Currently wddx_deserialize adds an utf8_decode on everything not cleary marked as being already latin1 - therefore wddx_deserialize has a bug since it is not capable of properly decoding a valid utf8 encoded WDDX packet to an UTF-8 string. Well, or at least it is nowhere documented properly how to influence the behavior of wddx_deserialize. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-17 16:49:09] [EMAIL PROTECTED] To handle UTF data you need to use utf8_encode() function on the data itself and add xml header identifying the data as being UTF8. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-16 16:07:59] mikx at mikx dot de Tried the snapshot for Windows you linked to (PHP Version 5.1.0RC5-dev). Result for the testcase is exactly the same as with 5.0.5. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-16 15:53:55] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php5-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5-win32-latest.zip ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
