[Bug 4828] New: Erroneous SIP2 behaviour with non ascii characters
http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4828 Summary: Erroneous SIP2 behaviour with non ascii characters Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 Component: SIP2 AssignedTo: colin.campbell@ptfs-europe.com ReportedBy: colin.campbell@ptfs-europe.com QAContact: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Estimated Hours: 0.0 The underlying bug is as much in the sip2 specification and implementation as in Koha, Symptom text in a sip request or response with a non-ascii character causes "undefined" behaviour in the client. (Usually an error and reset) Cause: The standard specifies that the sip character set is defined by an old dos codepage. I know of no client implementation which adheres to this most use a windows characterset. In Koha we send the text as retrieved from the database (i.e. utf-8) this is ok if the client is utf-8 or data is purely anglophone lacking special characters and diacritics. For some client devices we need a mechanism to protect them from scary non-ascii characters or to present them in a form they can display. In general the suppliers of client devices are a bit reticent about their machines character set limitations. This enhancement will probably be addressed when we have a case who want it fixed.

This two changes allowed us to see accented characters correctly on self-checks, and it's developed using 3M SIP 2.00 Emulator Version 1.3.0.1 I would suggest to add configuration option which can have default to clean output but also support sending correct utf-8 to clients which support it. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA Contact for the bug.
