[Jython-bugs] [issue2802] PEP 0263 magic coding comment rejected in UTF-8

[Randall W. <re...@bu...>]

New submission from Randall Wood <ran...@al...>:

src/org/python/core/ParserFacade.java rejects any PEP 0263 magic coding comment in a UTF-8 input (lines 314-316). In that case, should it not accept the magic coding comment that indicates the input is UTF-8 (i.e. should the comment "# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-" not be rejected)?
