RE: RFR 8124977 cmdline encoding challenges on Windows
Hi Naoto, 1) The system locale determines which code page is used on the system by default on operating systems that use Unicode as their native encoding (all OSes from Windows 2000 to Windows 10) to convert text data from Unicode to code page whenever dealing with legacy non-Unicode applications. Only applications that do not use Unicode as their default character-encoding mechanism are affected by this setting; therefore, applications that are already Unicode-encoded can safely ignore the value and functionality of this setting. 2) The fundamental representation of text in Windows NT-based operating systems is UTF-16, and the WCHAR data type is a UTF-16 code unit. Java launcher, from the other side, uses CHAR as a code unit - so to use UNICODE charset with Java launcher we had to encode entire command line with UTF-8 (convert from UTF-16 to UTF-8). After that step we can state that Java launcher is Unicode-encoded and can safely ignore the value and functionality of the system locale. To let JVM know that we use UTF-8 as a default UNICODE encoding for platform string - we assign the value to sprops.sun_jnu_encoding property (mac osx does the same) instead of reading system locale code page. The main idea of the fix was to change the way of how java and javac works with so called platform string on Windows. Before the fix the platform string was read as ANSI encoded - that's why the system locale code page was very important. The sun.jnu.encoding property is responsible for storing the platform string encoding. On Windows the property could be set with the system locale but the system locale doesn't support (by design) UTF-8 or with -Dsun.jnu.encoding switch, but the switch only works with java not with javac, and the switch was useless for ANSI encoded platform string.

Re: RFR 8124977 cmdline encoding challenges on Windows
Hello, Sorry if this has already been discussed, but this is my first time looking at the fix. In java_props_md.c, sprops.sun_jnu_encoding is now always "UTF-8". Is it always the case? What if the system admin switches the locale for "non-Unicode" applications in the Windows control panel?

RE: RFR 8124977 cmdline encoding challenges on Windows
Hi, The switches were introduced to prevent compatibility impact for existing usage on Windows. If the impact is acceptable then the next webrev will remove both of them and instead change the default behavior on windows to read the commandline in Unicode and to output UTF-8 to a console that has chcp 65001. How should this JLI_MemFree() call be protected? It seems that the only possible way to leak memory here is abnormal program termination. Do we have any ways to call JLI_MemFree in that case? There appears to be other places where JLI_MemFree is used in a similar way, a pointer to an example of correct usage would be helpful. Yes, JLI_StrCaseCmp will be used instead. Yes, the 'UnicodeCmdVerifier' approach had already been tried, but if the Java test class executes itself an exception occurs in TestHelper: java.lang.Error: property test.classes not defined ?? at TestHelper.clinit(TestHelper.java:117) Exception in thread main I tried your code as well and get the same exception. I did not find an existing test calling itself, however there are a lot of tests that call or compile+call other classes. So it seems we need two files, the caller class and the calling one, and if so is it ok to leave the test as is: shell script + Java class? It appears easier to read and modify.

Re: RFR 8124977 cmdline encoding challenges on Windows
Hi Kirk, Two questions (1) Why do you need to change the encoding used by the java.io.Console class. My understanding is that the console encoding is specifically used to talk to the underlying terminal, it should just be the one used by the underlying terminal/console. I don't think the proposed change updates the underlying console encoding (something like chcp) when -Dwindows.UnicodeConsole=true specified, if I read the webrev correctly. Instead, the Java_java_io_Console_encoding() probably need to be updated to return utf8 if the cp == 65001, so if the underlying terminal/console is using cp65001, the java.io.Console should encode/decode in utf8. I would assume the encoding of java.io.Condole should have nothing to do with using GetCommandLIneW() to parse the arguments in unicode in launcher? (2) Why do you need a defaultUnicodeCharset() in Charset class? Seems to me the scope should/could be limited inside LauncherHelper.java?

Re: RFR 8124977 cmdline encoding challenges on Windows
Hi Thanks for taking on these challenges. I would like to be able to associate file types with a Java program [1]. Currently, the Java program doesn't receive the argument (i.e. the path to the file that was double-clicked) correctly if it contains Unicode characters. I assume this would be possible by specifying -Dwindows.UnicodeConsole=true in the ftype command string, right? I would also like for System.out and System.err to use the specified Unicode charset. Currently, System.out and System.err use Windows-1252 (on my system), so they can't readily be used for Unicode output. A quick look at the webrev suggests that this hasn't been addressed yet. Kind regards, Anthony [1] http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2015-May/033132.html On 22/06/2015 23:01, Kirk Shoop (MS OPEN TECH) wrote: Hi, Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8124977 Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~kshoop/8124977/ This webrev intends to address interaction between Windows console and java apps.

RE: RFR 8124977 cmdline encoding challenges on Windows
From: Martin Buchholz [mailto:marti...@google.com] default unicode charset is a bizarre concept to me. Do windows users really have a regular charset and a unicode charset? If they do, we probably want to keep that concept out of the public non-Windows API somehow. Also, the W API is implicitly UTF-16, not any other flavor of Unicode. You probably want to capitalize unicode. The defaultUnicodeCharset is not a windows concept. This is the way we chose to ensure that the previous charset selection in the openJDK was unchanged unless windows.UnicodeConsole == true and that all the places that needed to override the charset on windows were covered by one new parameter. We could change the implementation such that the existing sun.jnu.encoding and file.encoding properties were used instead of adding the new file.encoding.unicode property. This might require that users set both on the commandline instead of just one. Other ideas for how to safely modify the charset selection when windows.UnicodeConsole == true are welcome.

Currently, the Java program doesn't receive the argument (i.e. the path to the file that was double-clicked) correctly if it contains Unicode characters. I assume this would be possible by specifying - Dwindows.UnicodeConsole=true in the ftype command string, right? I have not tested setting a file association. This change is intended to allow the argument to be parsed correctly. There may still be other bugs related to file operations on Unicode paths. I would also like for System.out and System.err to use the specified Unicode charset. Currently, System.out and System.err use Windows-1252 (on my system), so they can't readily be used for Unicode output. A quick look at the webrev suggests that this hasn't been addressed yet. Java.exe should not change the windows codepage. To get this scenario to work, make the association change the codepage and then start java. 'chcp 65001 java . . .' With this change, if the codepage is correct, then System.out and System.err should support Unicode. Kirk Developer Microsoft Open Technologies, Inc.

This was on my TODO list back in 2005 or so. I never got around to it, in part because of my personal and Sun's corporate Unix focus, and because waiting for Win98 to be de-supported was a great way to procrastinate. It's good for Microsoft employees (actual Windows users) to work on this - you have a much better idea of what Windows users actually expect. My own never-realized plan was to simply silently switch to full Unicode - use the W version of the API anywhere we talk to the OS (by default). But I don't know how existing users might be broken. default unicode charset is a bizarre concept to me. Do windows users really have a regular charset and a unicode charset? If they do, we probably want to keep that concept out of the public non-Windows API somehow. Also, the W API is implicitly UTF-16, not any other flavor of Unicode. You probably want to capitalize unicode.

Two switches were added that change the behavior of the launcher. The defaults do not change the launcher behavior. -Dwindows.UnicodeConsole=true - switches on Unicode support in the Windows console. This optional switch causes the launcher to call GetCommandLineW() and parse the arguments in unicode. It also modifies how the codepage for console output is selected. -Dfile.encoding.unicode=UTF-8 - identifies Unicode charset to use; If not specified, UTF-8 is used by default. Ignored when windows.UnicodeConsole is not set to true. When the first switch is used, this optional switch allows the codepage for console output to be controlled. I would like to get feedback on the approach here and any additional work that is required solve these particular Unicode issues on Windows. Kirk
