After making a post query to the server, I received JSON data that had an incorrect symbol: instead of "Correct," it showed up as "\u0421orrect". How can I properly encode this text?
The function parse_json appeared to handle it like "РЎorrect";
Through my investigation, I discovered the following:
$a = "\x{0421}orrect";
$a= encode("utf-8", $a);
gives me "РЎorrect," and
$a = "\x{0421}orrect";
$a= encode("cp1251", $a);
returns "Correct"
Therefore, I made the decision to switch from \u to \x for further conversion using cp1251.
\u to \x
I implemented the following:
Encode::Escape::enmode 'unicode-escape', 'perl';
Encode::Escape::demode 'unicode-escape', 'python';
$content= encode 'unicode-escape', decode 'unicode-escape', $content;
This resulted in \x{0421}orrect.
Subsequently, I attempted:
$content = encode( 'cp1251', $content );
However, there was no change - I still had \x{0421}orrect...
Notably, I observed something intriguing:
$a = "\x{0421}orrect";
$a= encode("cp1251", $a);
yields "Correct"
BUT
$a = '\x{0421}orrect';
$a= encode("cp1251", $a);
still displays "\x{0421}orrect".
This discrepancy may hold clues, but I am uncertain about the next steps to take.
Attempts were made to utilize encode and decode, Encode:: from_to, JSON::XS, and utf8, but the issue persists.
