Codeigniter 1.7.2 UTF-8 Edition - El Forum - 12-24-2009

Several of CodeIgniter's libraries do use the Multi-byte functions but only if they exist. E.g:
Code:
// Set the character encoding in MB.
if (function_exists('mb_internal_encoding'))
{
mb_internal_encoding($this->CI->config->item('charset'));
}You are right Demedes, CodeIgniter probably could do with using them a little more, but as I said I have never really had an issue with UTF-8 characters in PyroCMS.
For example, I wouldn't expect a Cyrillic character to pass a-z (alpha in Form_validation) out of the box, because it is NOT abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwyz and that to me seems fine.
Where have you guys been having your UTF-8 troubles? It is very possible I am just missing something.

Ok, I'll give an example. Here you are:
Code:
//Some method in controller
function test()
{
echo strlen('тест');

Well this is not core CodeIgniter code is it, so why could you not use mb_strlen? If you need to write a UTF-8 app and do lots of string work, installing MB functions is a fairly simple requirement.
You suggested you had to re-write the core of CodeIgniter to get it working properly, this is only controller work...

Yes, but as I saw, many of CI native libraries use, for example, trim or substr. If I will send them a non-english(for example, again) parameter, I will get unnormal symbols.
My package fixes all this problems. What are you want to discuss?

Well I said where is it causing problems, and your demo was in a controller. Where is it actually causing problems? Validation, routing, text helpers, what?

CP-1251 does not support such symbols as Ù, Š and others. If you still have any questions, feel free to ask me!
Whith my package, you don't need any settings to work with UTF-8. You will just use it. Today, I hope, I will publish updated version of Codeigniter 1.7.2 UTF-8 Edition.
