Re: [libvirt] PATCH: Fix escaping for 8-bit high characters

The virBufferEscapeString method has a broken test *cur > 0x20 which causes all 8-bit high characters to be lost as 'cur' is a signed char. This obviously dooms anyone using UTF-8 characters outside the boring old ASCII-7 range, like this guy https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=479517 Daniel diff --git a/src/buf.c b/src/buf.c index 259175d..c802aa2 100644 --- a/src/buf.c +++ b/src/buf.c @@ -304,7 +304,7 @@ virBufferEscapeString(const virBufferPtr buf, const char *format, const char *st *out++ = 'o'; *out++ = 's'; *out++ = ';'; - } else if ((*cur >= 0x20) || (*cur == '\n') || (*cur == '\t') || + } else if (((unsigned char)*cur >= 0x20) || (*cur == '\n') || (*cur == '\t') || (*cur == '\r')) { /* * default case, just copy !
