System.useCodePage=true - appending garbage characters to the data stream

When using the AIR 2.6 SDK with System.useCodePage = true, garbage characters are appended to the data stream when text is loaded. The devices that we are retrieving data from are DBCS only so we do not have the luxury of using UTF-8. This was a known issue that has been resolved in the flash player but still exists in Adobe AIR.

Any ideas?  A bug report was submitted on 5/31, but it remains in the Open/Unverified state...

Hi, I just took a look and it appears that we've reproduced this and created/linked your external bug to a new internal bug.  It's under review and currently on track to be fixed in an upcoming release.  The bug status should be updated on your bug once we get additional info.

Thanks,

Chris

Hi Chris,

This is great news.  Thank you so much for looking into it.  Would you have any idea on a timeframe for a release including a fix to this.  We are currently holding up the release of one of our products for Asia Pacific - waiting on this fix.  If it is going to be weeks or months, we will have to come up with another option.  We would rather not go down that path

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again,
