What did you do?
https://play.golang.org/p/9ZkvjGuE1so
What did you expect to see?
unicode.Is
and related functions should return false on negative values, as they do for other invalid runes. bytes.Buffer.WriteRune
should write a replacement character, as it does for other invalid runes. In particular, a UTF-32 decoder could easily construct a negative rune before checking. (Looks like x/text/encoding/unicode/utf32 does that and then relies on RuneLen noticing.)
What did you see instead?
unicode.Is
thinks some negative values are printable, and bytes.Buffer.WriteRune
accidentally runs a single-byte fast path.
I wasn't sure at first whether this was a bug, but most functions seem to check for negative values or cast to uint32
, so I think these should as well. (If they expect the rune be a real code point, that should probably be documented.)
