New submission from STINNER Victor <vstin...@redhat.com>:
bpo-36301 created a very strict separated between Python initialization and a new "pre-initialization" which is responsible to configure encodings and memory allocators. Nick Coghlan proposed to disable UTF-8 Mode and C locale coercion by default in the pre-initialization, so the LC_CTYPE locale is not coerced by Python when it's embedded in an application. Maybe the UTF-8 Mode can be automatically enabled (depending on the LC_CTYPE locale), but not the C locale coercion? This issue is related to bpo-36202: Calling Py_DecodeLocale() before _PyPreConfig_Write() can produce mojibake. ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 338922 nosy: ncoghlan, vstinner priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Disable coerce_c_locale and utf8_mode by default in _PyPreConfig? versions: Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36443> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
