Martin Sebor updated STDCXX-277:
--------------------------------
Summary: [locale] invalid LC_COLLATE output for weights > 255
(was: Locale stage 2 test failure)
Affects Version/s: 4.1.2
4.1.3
> [locale] invalid LC_COLLATE output for weights > 255
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: STDCXX-277
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-277
> Project: C++ Standard Library
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Utilities
> Affects Versions: 4.1.2, 4.1.3
> Environment: Multiple, including Linux 2.6.14.5 + gcc 3.2.3
> Reporter: Andrew Black
> Attachments: en_US.ISO-8859-1.sh.out, out.1
>
>
> To test the locales, the run_locale_utils.sh script is used, residing in the
> etc/config subdirectory of the source directory.
> During this process, the source file in the etc/nls subdirectory is first
> transformed into a locale database using the localedef utility, then is
> converted back to a source file using the locale utility. This process is
> repeated twice more, with each following stage relying on the source file
> from the previous itteration. The test then concludes by checking that the
> source files produced in the second and third stage are identical.
> On some platforms, including my local box, this process fails for most
> locales when the localedef utility in the second stage is unable to process
> the output of the source file generated by the locale utility in the first
> stage of the process. Output from running the en_US.ISO-8859-1.sh (wrapper)
> script with the '-d' flag on my box is attached as en_US.ISO-8859-1.sh.out.
> The failure message from the localedef utility in this case is as follows:
> Error 399: decimal value in the range [0, 255) expected: \d383
> When I search for the string '\d383' in the source file being parsed
> (attached as out.1), I find it in the LC_COLLATE section. It appears to me
> that either the output from the locale utility doesn't use the correct range,
> or that the valid range for the parser in localedef is incorrect.
