[Kolab-devel] [issue3528] Events with broken encoding should work

Wed Apr 1 17:05:39 CEST 2009

New submission from Thomas Arendsen Hein <thomas at intevation.de>:

Split out from
kolab/issue3520 (calendar with certain entries does not display in web client)
and kolab/issue3525 (free/busy regeneration aborts for unparsable events):

Events may be stored with other encodings than UTF8, but due to client bugs
this is not indicated in the xml encoding value, e.g.:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<event version="1.0" >
 <product-id>KOrganizer 3.3 (proko2 branch), Kolab resource</product-id>
 <uid>libkcal-816818875.662</uid>
 <body>...übbe...</body>
          ^ latin1

Currently the event causes free/busy and webclient calendar to abort.
If above issues are fixed it will still cause this event to be skipped.

Such events should be displayed with e.g. a question mark instead
of the undecodable character and free/busy should be handled correctly.
