I am using Perl 5.6.1 on Debian Linux with Text::Template 1.43
and Frontier::RPC2 0.06.
My template file is in Japanese Shift-JIS encoding. I am writing
a XML-RPC server using Frontier::RPC2 as a CGI-based type running
under Apache. The method I am calling is supposed to take a few
parameters, populate the values into the template with Text::Template
and then send out an email.
What I have found is that the Japanese characters in my template
gets corrupted in the output of the email when Text::Template runs
with the data received from the XML-RPC client. Initially I thought
the problem was with Text::Template, but I tested calling my
Text::Template code directly and there was no character corruption.
The problem only seems to occur when it is called with the data
received from the XML-RPC client.
I thought the problem was with the XML-RPC module, so I tried using
RPC::XML instead of Frontier::RPC2, but the same corruption occurs.
I also tried using the Template module instead of Text::Template,
but still the same corruption.
The parameters values I am sending between the XML-RPC client and
server are currently just ASCII text. The terminal I am using to
view the results is in Shift-JIS.
Is there some Unicode conversion I have to do somewhere?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
