Bugreport: ConsoleRead() broken reading on chinese systems

[viroman]

Hello,

I have noticed the biggest problem actually on chinese system, in my case Windows 8.. I use Autoit script for upload files in html form via CGI as compiled binary. It works fine on all systems except chinese  (possibly broken on all asian OSs)

If I use standard command

ConsoleRead();

the readed output is broken, so some chars differ but at least the file size is correct (on english, german, french etc. systems the readed output is OK despite of binary or text form of the uploaded file)

if I use

ConsoleRead(False, True)

thenn the problem is, the file size is smaller than expected and output is broken, so this mode does not help to fix it, (and again on english, german, french etc. systems the readed output is OK when used binary reading)

I tried to use different switches when compiling script to exe, like /ansi or /unicode, but problem was unsolved.

I tried then other programs for cgi upload, as example written in C, and voila, there it worked fine with upload on chinese win8 system, so my assumption was, there is some bug when reading console stdout on chinese system.

My question is, is that possible to use other techniques to read stdout rather than to use ConsoleRead()? May be windows native implementations?

Does someone have the solution for that problem in Autoit (to save the redeveloping time)

Just wanted to say that I have the exact same problem. Did you find a solution, viroman?

ConsoleWrite can display UTF8. So use this version instead:

Local $s = "Включить λμάΞψϚϝ ჭᴔᴟფდຖຊگ ●◐◑◒◓◔◕ 婫婴嫫嫻纛繢纶绩绀纻"
_ConsoleWrite($s)

Func _ConsoleWrite($str)
    ConsoleWrite(BinaryToString(StringToBinary($str, 4), 1) & @LF)
EndFunc
