Subject: [ruby-core:39124] [Ruby 1.9 - Bug #5232] Encoding of Date#to_s


Issue #5232 has been updated by Yui NARUSE.


US-ASCII is used for ASCII only strings.
It means pure string in some means.

default internal encoding is used for non ASCII non BINARY strings.

The basis of these is that ASCII is special.

Bug #5232: Encoding of Date#to_s
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/5232

Author: Aaron Patterson
Status: Open
Priority: Normal

Target version: 
ruby -v: ruby 1.9.4dev (2011-08-26 trunk 33073) [x86_64-darwin11.1.0]


The encoding of Date#to_s should respect Encoding.default_internal.

Here is the behavior today:

irb(main):001:0> require 'date'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> Date.today.to_s.encoding
=> #<Encoding:US-ASCII>
irb(main):003:0> Encoding.default_internal = Encoding::UTF_8
=> #<Encoding:UTF-8>
irb(main):004:0> Date.today.to_s.encoding
=> #<Encoding:US-ASCII>
irb(main):005:0>

Here is the behavior I expect:

irb(main):001:0> require 'date'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> Date.today.to_s.encoding
=> #<Encoding:US-ASCII>
irb(main):003:0> Encoding.default_internal = Encoding::UTF_8
=> #<Encoding:UTF-8>
irb(main):004:0> Date.today.to_s.encoding
=> #<Encoding:UTF-8>
irb(main):005:0>

I've attached a patch that fixes this.
