Summary	0003534: Qt4's assumption of Latin-1 encoding decodes UTF-8 characters in Doomseeker built with Qt4 incorrectly (language configuration)

Revision	2018-10-06 09:23 by WubTheCaptain
Description	"Español" gets garbled into "EspanÅ±ol" (or similar) in configuration, because of UTF-8 characters not being expected in Doomseeker built with Qt4. Support for UTF-8 characters would need to be explicitly added in Qt4. See attached screenshot.

Additional Information	Not reproducible in Qt5, because Qt5 expects UTF-8 and UTF-8 only. The above issue with "About dialog" is not reproducible in Doomseeker 1.1. 'https://wiki.qt.io/index.php?title=Strings_and_encodings_in_Qt&oldid=23630 [^]'
