This file is not meant to be a conformance test. It does 9 not prescribes any particular outcome and therefore there is no way to 10 "pass" or "fail" this test file, even though the text suggests a 11 preferable decoder behaviour at some places. The aim is instead to 12 help you think about and test the behaviour of your UTF-8 decoder on a 13 systematic collection of unusual inputs. Experience so far suggests 14 that most first-time authors of UTF-8 decoders find at least one 15 serious problem in their decoder using this file. 16 17 The test lines below cover boundary conditions, malformed UTF-8 18 sequences, as well as correctly encoded UTF-8 sequences of Unicode code 19 points that should never occur in a correct UTF-8 file. 20 21 According to ISO 10646-1:2000, sections D.7 and 2.3c, a device 22 receiving UTF-8 shall interpret a "malformed sequence in the same way 23 that it interprets a character that is outside the adopted subset" and 24 "characters that are not within the adopted subset shall be indicated 25 to the user" by a receiving device. One commonly used approach in 26 UTF-8 decoders is to replace any malformed UTF-8 sequence by a 27 replacement character (U+FFFD), which looks a bit like an inverted 28 question mark, or a similar symbol. It might be a good idea to 29 visually distinguish a malformed UTF-8 sequence from a correctly 30 encoded Unicode character that is just not available in the current 31 font but otherwise fully legal, even though ISO 10646-1 doesn't 32 mandate this. In any case, just ignoring malformed sequences or 33 unavailable characters does not conform to ISO 10646, will make 34 debugging more difficult, and can lead to user confusion. 35 36 Please check, whether a malformed UTF-8 sequence is (1) represented at 37 all, (2) represented by exactly one single replacement character (or 38 equivalent signal), and (3) the following quotation mark after an 39 illegal UTF-8 sequence is correctly displayed, i.e. proper 40 resynchronization takes place immediately after any malformed 41 sequence. This file says "THE END" in the last line, so if you don't 42 see that, your decoder crashed somehow before, which should always be 43 cause for concern. 44 45 All lines in this file are exactly 79 characters long (plus the line 46 feed). In addition, all lines end with "|", except for the two test 47 lines 2.1.1 and 2.2.1, which contain non-printable ASCII controls 48 U+0000 and U+007F. If you display this file with a fixed-width font, 49 these "|" characters should all line up in column 79 (right margin). 50 This allows you to test quickly, whether your UTF-8 decoder finds the 51 correct number of characters in every line, that is whether each 52 malformed sequences is replaced by a single replacement character. 53 54 Note that, as an alternative to the notion of malformed sequence used 55 here, it is also a perfectly acceptable (and in some situations even 56 preferable) solution to represent each individual byte of a malformed 57 sequence with a replacement character. If you follow this strategy in 58 your decoder, then please ignore the "|" column. 59 60 61 Here come the tests: | 62 | 63 1 Some correct UTF-8 text | 64 | 65 You should see the Greek word 'kosme': "κόσμε" | 66 | 67 2 Boundary condition test cases | 68 | 69 2.1 First possible sequence of a certain length | 70 | 71 2.1.1 1 byte (U-00000000): "
