Bug #13874
Updated by ojundt (Oliver Jundt) over 7 years ago
I noticed the result of `String#encode` changes after a call to `String#valid_encoding?`. Other side effects were not visible so far. Based on the documentation and intuition I would expect `#valid_encoding?` to be an operation without side effects. ~~~ ruby content = "\xE5".dup.force_encoding(Encoding::ASCII_8BIT) p content.encode(Encoding::UTF_8, Encoding::UTF_8, invalid: :replace, undef: :replace, replace: '?') => "?" content.valid_encoding? p content.encode(Encoding::UTF_8, Encoding::UTF_8, invalid: :replace, undef: :replace, replace: '?') => "\xE5" ~~~
