Issue #19455 has been updated by mame (Yusuke Endoh). Discussed at the dev meeting. @matz said he would prefer 3.1 behavior if possible (but not high priority). @nobu said he would take a look. ---------------------------------------- Bug #19455: Ruby 3.2: wrong Regexp encoding with non-ASCII comments https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19455#change-102280 * Author: janosch-x (Janosch Müller) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * ruby -v: ruby 3.2.0 (2022-12-25 revision a528908271) * Backport: 2.7: UNKNOWN, 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- comments and comment groups don't trigger the correct `Regexp#encoding` on Ruby 3.2 anymore: ```ruby # ruby 3.1 /#a/x.encoding # => #<Encoding:US-ASCII> # OK /(?#a)/.encoding # => #<Encoding:US-ASCII> # OK /#ü/x.encoding # => #<Encoding:UTF-8> # OK /(?#ü)/.encoding # => #<Encoding:UTF-8> # OK # ruby 3.2 /#a/x.encoding # => #<Encoding:US-ASCII> # OK /(?#a)/.encoding # => #<Encoding:US-ASCII> # OK /#ü/x.encoding # => #<Encoding:US-ASCII> # BUG /(?#ü)/.encoding # => #<Encoding:US-ASCII> # BUG /#ü/x.inspect # => "/#\\xC3\\xBC/x" /(?#ü)/.inspect # => "/(?#\\xC3\\xBC)/" # bug is hidden if there are non-ascii chars outside comments /ü#ü/x.encoding # => #<Encoding:UTF-8> /ü(?#ü)/.encoding # => #<Encoding:UTF-8> ``` i think these changes might be the cause: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/commit/ec3542229b29ec93062e9d90e877ea29d3c19472... @jeremyevans0 JFYI -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
