bpo-31904: Add encoding support for VxWorks RTOS by pxinwr · Pull Request #12051 · python/cpython (original) (raw)

Thanks for the comments associated with locale. Locale support is in our next plan. We will investigate this.

Every platform has an "incomplete" support for locales. Each implementation makes its own choices: locale name, Unicode version, etc.

I wrote my own Python unit tests for locales, tests very specific to a platform, even for the platform version :-(

I wrote an article on my recent work on Python code handling locales (bugfixes basically):

I'm working on that for 10 years, and they are still bugs!
