Bug 54931 – Korean is broken by utf8() of String

• Status: RESOLVED

korean is broken by utf8(). But, korean is not broken when latin1() is used. It seems to me that this is strange.

I test this by below codes.

    printf("<< korean string test(utf8) : %s \n", String("한글").utf8().data());
    printf("<< korean string test(latin1) : %s \n", String("한글").latin1().data());

Does anyone know why korean is broken ?

If my test is something wrong, please let me know. Thank you.

Result of above test :

 korean string test(utf8) : íê¸ 
 korean string test(latin1) : 한글

In order to use utf8, we should use fromUTF8() as below,

   printf("<< korean string test(utf8) : %s \n", (String::fromUTF8("한글")).utf8().data());
