Project: GNU Smalltalk
Version: <none>
Component: VM
Category: bug reports
Priority: normal
Assigned to: Unassigned
Reported by: S11001001
Updated by: bonzinip
Status: patch
* Assume ASCII. regex.c already effectively assumes that strings
are somewhat ASCII-compatible, and this wouldn't bias in favor of a
particular ASCII superset.
I believe this is the best.
* Assume Latin-1. This has the benefit of offering a clear
behavior path to future support for matching full Unicode strings, so
it's what the patch uses.
Not really, because UTF-8 is not a superset of Latin-1. All of eastern
Europe, plus Greece, plus most of Africa/Asia/Australia do not use
Latin-1.
If you don't mind some conflicts, I can adapt the patch you attached.
Otherwise, you can do the change yourself and I'll cherrypick both
changesets.
