So I think this is clean though, but this would be regression > for user of utf8=1. I do not think so... But please correct me, as this code around is mess. Without this change when utf8=1 is set then iocharset= encoding is used for case-insensitivity implementation (toupper / tolower conversion). For all other parts are use correct utf8* conversion functions. But you use touppper / tolower functions from iocharset= encoding on stream of utf8 bytes then you either get identity or some unpredictable garbage in utf8. So when comparing two (different) non-ASCII filenames via this method you in most cases get that filenames are different. Because converting their utf8 bytes via toupper / tolower functions from iocharset= encoding results in two different byte sequences in most cases. Even for two utf8 case-insensitive same strings. But you can play with it and I guess it is possible to find two different utf8 strings which after toupper / tolower conversion from some iocharset= encoding would lead to same byte sequence. This patch uses for utf8 tolower / touppser function simple 7-bit tolower / toupper ascii function. And so for 7-bit ascii file names there is no change. So this patch changes behavior when comparing non 7-bit ascii file names, but only in cases when previously two different file names were marked as same. As now they are marked correctly as different. So this is changed behavior, but I guess it is bug fix which is needed. If you want I can put this change into separate patch. Issue that two case-insensitive same files are marked as different is not changed by this patch and therefore this issue stay here. > Thanks. > -- > OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
