Warning about change of encoding or retain encoding

[kefir500]

Closing as fixed. Reopen if needed.

Seems that Qt can detect UTF encodings only when the BOM is present (see qtextcodec.cpp).
In 4904630 I changed the internal open/save algorithm for the code editor in the following way:

Open:

• Qt tries to detect the file encoding.
• The fallback decoder is UTF-8.
• The codec is stored in a variable so it can be retained later when saving.

Save:

• If the encoding is UTF-8, no BOM is written.
• If the encoding is some other Unicode encoding, then the BOM is written.
• Otherwise, no BOM is written.

Please, check out this developer build and let me know if the problem is fixed:

Unfortunately, there are bad VirusTotal results for this dev build: .zip, .msi, .exe in .zip. I can't run it that way.

I believe this is a false positive as there are only 1-2 antivirus engines detecting the files. The developer builds are automatically created at the trusted continuous integration services such as Travis CI (Linux, macOS) and AppVeyor (Windows).

Though it is possible to submit a false positive report to an antivirus vendor, a new developer release is created on every commit which are very frequent. So by the time the false positive report is reviewed, the binary would be already outdated.

• You can review the AppVeyor build logs here: MSI / ZIP
• You can compile APK Editor Studio from source yourself.
• You can wait for a final v1.4.0 release.

Thanks. I'll wait for v1.4.0.

@h-h-h-h, in case you have checked the new release, can I have your feedback? Is the issue resolved?
