Hi, Does someone know if there's a way to explicitly set the stdout/stderr/stdin encoding that python should use?
What I'm trying to do is make python recognize that the Eclipse output accepts a different encoding (such as utf-8, cp1252, etc). More details on the problem can be found at: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1580766&group_id=85796&atid=577329 The closest I could get to solving this was running a script that went on and ran the script that should really be executed through the code below (which I think is a lousy solution, but the only one I could see so far -- and I also have to keep different versions of that for jython, as in jython that works without any workaround): ---------------------- script giving error ---------------------- print u"unicode char: >>\xF6<<" ---------------------- script I have to run to make it work ---------------------- if __name__ == '__main__': import sys reload(sys) #without the reload setdefaultencoding is not accessible sys.setdefaultencoding('cp1252') #go on and make an execfile on the module we actually want to run (we have to be careful not to mess up that namespace) .... Thanks, Fabio
