Issue #20185 has been reported by chucke (Tiago Cardoso). ---------------------------------------- Bug #20185: String#ascii_only? buggy in ruby 3.3 https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20185 * Author: chucke (Tiago Cardoso) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: 3.3.0 * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- This was the smallest reduction of the bug I could come up with: require "stringio" puts StringIO::VERSION def is_ascii(buffer) str = buffer.string puts "\"#{str}\" is ascii: #{str.ascii_only?}" end buffer = StringIO.new("".b) buffer.write("a=b&c=d") buffer.rewind is_ascii(buffer) buffer.write "богус" is_ascii(buffer) # in ruby 3.3 #=> 3.1.0 #=> "a=b&c=d" is ascii: true #=> "богус" is ascii: true # in ruby 3.2 #=> 3.0.4 #=> "a=b&c=d" is ascii: true #=> "богус" is ascii: true # in ruby 3.1 #=> 3.0.1 #=> "a=b&c=d" is ascii: true #=> "богус" is ascii: false I believe that only the 3.1 result is correct, as "богус" first character is not ascii. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
