Re: [EP-tech] REST problems with capital letters

Dear all,

Updating perl_lib/EPrints/Apache/REST.pm by adding

binmode( *STDIN, ":utf8" );
binmode( *STDOUT, ":utf8" );

in the beginning of the subroutine put_field_txt seems to solve this specific issue.  I assume that the charset really should be obtained in some other more dynamic way but don't know how.

Subject: [EP-tech] REST problems with capital letters

Hi all,
For some reason I cannot use the REST to update fields with text containing non-ascii capital letter, such as Å, Ä, Ö or Ü.  No problem with smaller caps like å, ä, ö and ü.

Works:
curl -v -u $user:$pass -H "Content-Type:text/plain;charset=UTF-8" --data-binary 'åäö-ü works' -X PUT 'https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftestserver.slub.se%2Frest%2Feprint%2F1%2Fcomment.txt&amp;data=01%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7Cdb2b64f82e234ab589c708d6972454a4%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C1&amp;sdata=uYuEHrVv2VNPgS0qqGN5dRrWyrnTjEwdufLx58AWIVc%3D&amp;reserved=0'

Fails:
Works:
curl -v -u $user:$pass -H "Content-Type:text/plain;charset=UTF-8" --data-binary 'Ö do not work' -X PUT 'https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftestserver.slub.se%2Frest%2Feprint%2F1%2Fcomment.txt&amp;data=01%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7Cdb2b64f82e234ab589c708d6972454a4%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C1&amp;sdata=uYuEHrVv2VNPgS0qqGN5dRrWyrnTjEwdufLx58AWIVc%3D&amp;reserved=0'

probably something very simple I missed but I cannot find what.  Any help much appreciated.

Actually, it doesn't seem like the header is required, even

curl -v -u $user:$pass -d 'åäö-ü works' -X PUT 'https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftestserver.slub.se%2Frest%2Feprint%2F1%2Fcomment.txt&amp;data=01%7C01%7Ceprints-tech%40ecs.soton.ac.uk%7Cdb2b64f82e234ab589c708d6972454a4%7C4a5378f929f44d3ebe89669d03ada9d8%7C1&amp;sdata=uYuEHrVv2VNPgS0qqGN5dRrWyrnTjEwdufLx58AWIVc%3D&amp;reserved=0'

works.  But as said before, when trying to send capitals with umlauts, rings etc then you get weird stuff like ��� instead.

Note: No errors anywhere, simple scambled data inserted.

Regards,
Christer Enkvist
