PHP version: 5.2.6
PHP Bug Type: mbstring related
Bug description: mb_detect_encoding and mb_check_encoding results are dissonant
Description:
------------
mb_detect_encoding does not seem to recognize UTF-16 encoded files
properly. Even if it is assured by using mb_check_encoding that a file is
truly UTF-16LE, mb_detect_encoding does not detect the same file as UTF-16
and is returning ISO-8859-1 instead. Activating/deactivating strict mode
has no influence on the result.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$content = file_get_contents($src_path);
$encodings = array('UTF-16', 'UTF-16LE', 'UTF-16BE', 'UTF-8', 'UNICODE',
'ISO-8859-1');
$enc = mb_detect_encoding($content, $encodings);
print "encoding: $enc\n";
print 'checked: ' . intval(mb_check_encoding($content, 'UTF-16LE'));
Expected result:
----------------
encoding: UTF-16LE
checked: 1
Actual result:
--------------
encoding: ISO-8859-1
checked: 1
