#77: FASLs use wrong encoding: system default ------------------------+--------------------------------------------------- Reporter: ehuelsmann | Owner: ehuelsmann Type: defect | Status: new Priority: critical | Milestone: 0.19 Component: compiler | Version: Keywords: | ------------------------+--------------------------------------------------- Because FASLs are using the system default encoding, we can't be sure they can hold all characters which Java (and thus Lisp) can handle. Additionally, reading back FASLs on systems which have a different default encoding might break.
Solution: use UTF-8 as the encoding for FASLs.
