Issue #4489 has been updated by James M. Lawrence.


I assume you realize that you have broken backwards compatibility by
rejecting the second part of the patch.

  % cat mac.rb 
  # encoding: utf-8-mac
  puts "foo".encoding

  % ruby19dev -v mac.rb 
  ruby 1.9.3dev (2011-03-10 trunk 31080) [i386-darwin9.8.0]
  UTF8-MAC

  % ./ruby -v mac.rb
  ruby 1.9.3dev (2011-03-10 trunk 31085) [i386-darwin9.8.0]
  UTF-8

The full patch keeps compatibility. You may wish to break it, which is
fine as long as nobody blames me :)

Backport #4489: [PATCH] Encodings with /-(unix|dos|mac)\Z/
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/4489

Author: James M. Lawrence
Status: Assigned
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Yuki Sonoda
Category: 
Target version: 


The *-dos and *-mac meta-encodings were not being recognized. utf-8-mac is a special case since it corresponds to a real encoding; its meta-encoding is utf-8-mac-mac.
