Dear All,
Here I am. :) This time, I have another silly problem about encoding of
IronPython. According to my experience in programming, now IP can support
unicode under interactive mode. If I put the unicode into .py file, the
unicode code can not be displayed correctly.And I followed the Python
Specification and tried to add the encoding declaration into .py file like
this:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
But this declaration doesn't work.
I found that what results in the encoding problem. The fromFile method
in Parser.cs is the key factor. Here is the source of fromFile method:
public static Parser fromFile(CompilerContext context, string
filename) {
string data;
// we choose ASCII by default, if the file has a Unicode header
though
// we'll automatically get it as unicode.
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(File.OpenRead(filename),
System.Text.Encoding.ASCII);
using (sr) {
data = sr.ReadToEnd();
sr.Close();
}
return new Parser(context, filename, new Tokenizer(context,
data.ToCharArray()));
}
I revised the System.Text.Encoding.ASCII to
System.Text.Encoding.Default. The encoding problem was solved. I do hope
receive the official comment about this revision. Thank you very much.
Regards,
Michael
