Re: Strange translation/encoding problem

[Emanuele Pucciarelli <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>]

Hi,

from django.utils.translation import ugettext as _

My guess is that if you import ugettext, then you should supply a
Unicode string as an argument:

def index(request):
teststring = _(u"Lösung")
[...]

(notice the 'u' before the string).

That works here, at least using an utf-8 source file (# -*- coding:
utf-8 -*- at the start).

Bye,

Strange translation/encoding problem

[spacetaxi]

Hi list,

my django is completely utf8-configured. I'm using I18N and my msg-ids
(po-files) are utf8-encoded, too.

But now I've run into a strange problem: Translation of strings
containing non-ascii characters is working great in templates, but it
fails if I try to translate non-ascii strings in a view.

For example, this get's translated without problems:
{% trans "Lösung" %}

But this one fails:
from django.utils.translation import ugettext as _
def index(request):
teststring = _("Lösung")
[...]

This exception is raised when the view is called:
--
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django/core/handlers/
base.py" in get_response
  77. response = callback(request, *callback_args, **callback_kwargs)
File "/usr/local/django/myproject/../myproject/portal/views.py" in
index

  258. return getattr(t, translation_function)(message)

  UnicodeDecodeError at /
  'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 1: ordinal not in

Why does it work within templates but not within views?? What am I
doing wrong? Any hint?

(BTW, I'm using the current django trunk.)

TIA
-Stephan
