Cyrillic characters in PHP's json_encode
I found this in the code of Zend framework:
http://framework.zend.com/svn/framework/standard/trunk/library/Zend/Json/Decoder.php
Take a look at the function decodeUnicodeString ( line 474 ):
/** * Decode Unicode Characters from \u0000 ASCII syntax. * * This algorithm was originally developed for the * Solar Framework by Paul M. Jones * * @link http://solarphp.com/ * @link http://svn.solarphp.com/core/trunk/Solar/Json.php * @param string $value * @return string */ public static function decodeUnicodeString($chrs)
It's static, and you can easily extract it - just replace the line:
490: $utf8 .= self::_utf162utf8($utf16);
with:
490: $utf8 .= mb_convert_encoding($utf16, 'UTF-8', 'UTF-16');
Not an ideal solution, but did the job for me :o)
