#1 Updated by Greg Shah over 1 year ago

Codepages (UTF-8, ISO8859-1, IBM850) need to be tested/fixed in ASC(), CHR(), OUTPUT TO ... CONVERT and FIX-CODEPAGE().

Hi Delia, what is the state of #4766? Can you do some preliminary tests with the codepages mentioned by Greg?

Hello, #4766 is not ready. There are cases for certain codepages that make an exception from the rule that need to be treated. As Greg proposed, I was working on some files that mapped conversion between compatible codepages when I discovered problems with UTF-16xx/UTF-32xx.
Also, cases like CHR(7829367., "UTF-8", "UTF-8") where 7829367 = ASC ("www", "UTF-8", "UTF-8") aren't yet covered. I was focusing on making the rule correct for all combinations of codepages for ONE character, not a string.

If it is necessary, I can focus just on the mentioned codepages above.

Should I focus on the three codepages written in #9532-1?
