Text encoding / decoding problems to use Mantis intergation with Plastic SCM 4.0

[uml2]

Hi, Plastic SCM users. O:)

I have problems to use Mantis intergation with Plastic SCM 4.0.

My question is the issue title or details support only ascii code or the others ( e.g. utf-8 , euc-kr) .

I think that the issues can not be linked if the text encoding of title is not ascii-encoded. (english only?)

reproduce step:

mode : "Task on changeset" working mode.

1. add issues form the Mantis extension:

2. input Issue ID : 1

3. select : details button

4. answer : There is no issue with this ID: (empty) [OK]

what's the check point to solve this problems ?

I had a problem using Mantis too, but the chars are just replaced.

When the name has "ç", "ã", "õ" and others those chars are replaced by "??",

It happens with usernames and Branches names too.

Manu told me that they already corrected my problem, so maybe it helps you too.

plastic.php code has the problems of text-decoding ///

# escape html characters

//$summary = xmlentities(htmlentities($bug_data->summary)); (about 50L)

$summary = htmlentities($bug_data->summary, null, "UTF-8");

.... plastic window ''' replaced unreaable chracters... . I cann't solve it.

Thanks.

mantisextension.conf : Add Text Encoding preference. (like preference options for the diff merge tool in the file "guiclient.conf")

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<MantisExtensionConfiguration xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

<Encoding>UTF8</Encoding> <!-- add preference for text encoding -->

</MantisExtensionConfiguration>

Thank you

Hi,

yep, we need to set the encoding to the webrequest in the Mantis extension. Expect it to be released in a coming point release.

Thanks!
