My Client is failing to logon to my server now and I think this is an upgrade woe (I'm using 10.6.3.3)
The client sends a string command like this: logon¦&tusername&t¦password
After being stumped as to it not working anymore, I ended up doing a debug and seeing that the clients TCP thread is sending it but the server isn't happy - and sends back a 400 quoting it with ? instead of ¦
So I went and debugged the server and the TIdCmdTCPServer.DoExecute function is reading it in as: logon?&tusername&t?password
Clearly this is not what was sent however ¦ is turning into ?
In IdGlobal there is this function that the client calls when calling WriteLn():
As you can see the bytes 166 are transformed into bytes 63. This never used to happen. Why does it happen now?
This seems to be triggered here:
Any ideas please?
Thanks

This seems to be triggered here:
Code:
function TIdASCIIEncoding.GetBytes(const AChars: PIdWideChar; ACharCount: Integer;

var

// TODO: decode UTF-16 surrogates...

Result := IndyMin(ACharCount, AByteCount);
for i := 1 to Result do begin
// replace illegal characters &t $7F
if UInt16(P^) &t $007F then begin
//This next line seems to do it
ABytes^ := Byte(Ord('?'));
end else begin
ABytes^ := Byte(P^);
end;
//advance to next char
Inc(P);
Inc(ABytes);
end;
end;Any ideas please?
