Issue #13874 has been updated by nagachika (Tomoyuki Chikanaga). Backport changed from 2.2: REQUIRED, 2.3: REQUIRED, 2.4: REQUIRED to 2.2: REQUIRED, 2.3: REQUIRED, 2.4: DONE ruby_2_4 r59822 merged revision(s) 59763. ---------------------------------------- Bug #13874: String#valid_encoding? has side effects https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/13874#change-66580 * Author: ojundt (Oliver Jundt) * Status: Closed * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Target version: * ruby -v: ruby 2.4.1p111 (2017-03-22 revision 58053) [x86_64-darwin16] * Backport: 2.2: REQUIRED, 2.3: REQUIRED, 2.4: DONE ---------------------------------------- I noticed the result of `String#encode` changes after a call to `String#valid_encoding?`. Other side effects were not visible so far. Based on the documentation and intuition I would expect `#valid_encoding?` to be an operation without side effects. ~~~ ruby content = "\xE5".dup.force_encoding(Encoding::ASCII_8BIT) content.encode(Encoding::UTF_8, Encoding::UTF_8, invalid: :replace, replace: '?') => "?" content.valid_encoding? content.encode(Encoding::UTF_8, Encoding::UTF_8, invalid: :replace, replace: '?') => "\xE5" ~~~ -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe: <mailto:ruby-core-request / ruby-lang.org?subject=unsubscribe> <http://lists.ruby-lang.org/cgi-bin/mailman/options/ruby-core>
