Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70475&edit=1 ID: 70475 Updated by: laruence@php.net Reported by: cl at exomail dot to Summary: ext/mbstring/unicode_data.h needs update Status: Assigned Type: Bug Package: mbstring related Operating System: all PHP Version: Irrelevant Assigned To: wez Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Hmm, I have tried upgrade the unicode_data.h up to UnicodeData-8.0.0. but seems the behavior is till the same, thus I am not sure should I do the update.. thanks Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-09-11 13:43:56] cl at exomail dot to Description: ------------ Looking at github the last update of php-src/ext/mbstring/unicode_data.h was 2010-10-05 42dae97fd49f8d5f5d45c6254794f41fc2b32c88 So the Unicode-Data (for mb_strtoupper, etc.) is FIVE(!) years old. There is a nice website called http://unicode.org/ I know PHP is playing in a different league than other software languages (which try to follow unicode changes as closely as possible). But think about looking every 3 or 4 years on this nice Unicode webpage and include the "newest" changes. Even for really "old" characters mb_strtoupper does nothing, like for U+00DF (ß) or U+0149 (ʼn). Test script: --------------- $str="\xc3\x9f"; echo $str." upper => ".mb_strtoupper($str,'UTF-8')."\n"; $str="\xc5\x89"; echo $str." upper => ".mb_strtoupper($str,'UTF-8')."\n"; Expected result: ---------------- expected output: ß upper => SS ʼn upper => ʼN Actual result: -------------- output of testscript: ß upper => ß ʼn upper => ʼn ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70475&edit=1
