localedef fails to generate multibyte characters with the same prefix
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: STDCXX-285
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-285
Project: C++ Standard Library
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Utilities
Affects Versions: 4.1.2, 4.1.3
Environment: all
Reporter: Martin Sebor
Assigned To: Martin Sebor
The localedef utility fails to generate multibyte characters whose initial
prefix (leading byte) is the same as some single-byte character. The test case
below demonstrates the problem:
$ cat charmap && cat ctype && ./localedef -c -w -f charmap -i ctype /tmp/dummy
&& LC_ALL=/tmp/dummy ./locale --charmap
CHARMAP
<U0041> \x41
<U0141> \x41\x42
<U0241> \x41\x43
END CHARMAP
LC_CTYPE
END LC_CTYPE
<escape_char> \
<comment_char> #
<code_set_name> charmap
<mb_cur_max> 1
# charmap data:
# charmap name = charmap
# n_to_w_tab_off = 0
# w_to_n_tab_off = 1024
# utf8_to_ext_tab_off = 4096
# xliteration_off = 7168
# wchar_off = 8192
# codeset_off = 8216
# charmap_off = 8224
# codecvt_ext_off = 0
CHARMAP
<U0041> \x41 # L'\x41'
END CHARMAP
# charmap stats:
# number of tables = 1
# number of characters = 1
# number of unused slots = 255 (100% waste)
