Summary: Perl doesn't lovercase accented caracters in UTF-8 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=157071 jvdias@xxxxxxxxxx changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |CLOSED Resolution| |NOTABUG ------- Additional Comments From jvdias@xxxxxxxxxx 2005-11-08 17:32 EST ------- Yes, I know the perl unicode implementation is far from user-friendly or intuitive - this is an upstream issue that is being addressed - but it does work (just) if used correctly . perl's lc / uc DO work for UTF-8, IF the UTF-8 is properly encoded, AND perl is running in wide-character mode , AND the characters have defined upper/lower case counterparts in your current locale. These examples should expose the issues - I suggest you also read the perlunicode and perllocale man-pages . $ perl -C -e 'use locale; use utf8; use Encode qw(decode); $s=decode(utf8,"\xc5\x99\xc4\x9b"); print uc $s,"\n";' ŘĚ $ perl -C -e 'use locale; use utf8; use Encode qw(decode); $s=decode(utf8,"\xc5\x99\xc4\x9b"); print $s,"\n";' řě $ perl -e 'use Encode qw(decode); $s=decode(utf8,"\xc5\x99\xc4\x9b"); print $s,"\n";' Wide character in print at -e line 1. řě $ perl -C -e 'use Encode qw(decode); $s=decode(utf8,"\xc5\x99\xc4\x9b"); print $s,"\n";' řě $ PERL_UNICODE=31 perl -e 'use Encode qw(decode); $s=decode(utf8,"\xc5\x99\xc4\x9b"); print uc $s,"\n";' ŘĚ $ PERL_UNICODE=31 perl -e 'use Encode qw(decode); $s=decode(utf8,"ŘĚ"); print lc $s,"\n";' řě -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
