Unable to diff non UTF-8 files with special characters

[Alexandre Garnier]

When diffing 2 revisions of a file, I have this errors in bazaar console and a dialog box "No differences" :

Executing: cat "--revision=revno:9057" src\Test.java

    Error while executing cat
    The response could not be parsed.
    The response could not be parsed.
    A problem occured during parsing
    Invalid byte 2 of 3-byte UTF-8 sequence.------
Executing: cat "--revision=revno:15501" src\Test.java

    Error while executing cat
    The response could not be parsed.
    The response could not be parsed.
    A problem occured during parsing
    Invalid byte 2 of 3-byte UTF-8 sequence.

This file is not UTF-8 encoded (but ISO-8859-1) and contains accented letters.

Alexandre,
Thanks for reporting this.
I can confirm the problem.
It seems that xmlrpc service sset the encoding to UTF-8 but sends the contents of the file as ISO-8859-1
I'll fix this in the client, while looking for a robust solution on the server.

Cheers,
