Message8277

I am trying the Jython 2.7 beta 1 standalone downloaded from:

http://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=org/python/jython-standalone/2.7-b1/jython-standalone-2.7-b1.jar

but found some issues running it on Windows 8 platform. The same commands works fine on Linux. 

Below are the test results on Linux and Windows w/o the workaround of adding "-Dpython.concole=org.python.util.InteractiveConsole".

The stack trace is also attached.

The non working basic command like aa="aa" makes Jython 2.7 beta 1 not usable on multi-byte characters on Windows platform.

===================

jython 2.7 beta 1 standalone:

Linux:

1. aa="aa" works.
2. sys.stdin.readline() works.
3. CTRL +C works.

Windows:

1. aa="aa" hangs. CTRL + D  + enter to exit
2. sys.stdin.readline() hangs. CTRL + D or CTRL + C not working. need to kill the java process
3. CTRL + C shows a heart. Hit "enter" to exit with this message:
LookupError: unknown encoding 'ms936'


jython 2.7 beta 1 standalone + -Dpython.console=org.python.util.InteractiveConsole:

Linux:

1. aa="aa" works
2. sys.stdin.readline() works.
3. CTRL + C works.

Windows:

1. aa="aa" hangs. CTRL + D  + enter to exit
2. sys.stdin.readline() works.
3. CTRL + C works.

=============================

The stack trace when aa="aa" hangs looks like this:
