bpo-34527: POSIX locale enables the UTF-8 Mode#8972
Merged
Conversation
Changes: * The UTF-8 Mode is now also enabled by the "POSIX" locale, not only by the "C" locale. * On FreeBSD, Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() now also forces the ASCII encoding if the LC_CTYPE locale is "POSIX", not only if the LC_CTYPE locale is "C". * test_utf8_mode.test_cmd_line() checks also that the command line arguments are decoded from UTF-8 when the the UTF-8 Mode is enabled with POSIX locale or C locale.

Oops, I'd missed that I'd updated the locale coercion check to fire in this case, but not the UTF-8 mode activation (in the event that locale coercion fails, or is switched off). Thanks! |

The POSIX locale now also enables the UTF-8 Mode.
Moreover, Python now also forces the ASCII encoding on FreeBSD and
Solaris if the LC_CTYPE locale is "POSIX", nl_langinfo(CODESET)
announces an ASCII encoding, but mbstowcs() uses Latin1 encoding
instead of ASCII.
