Bug report #15293

Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 7 years ago

The bug is about character encoding when using geoprocessing algorithm from the toolbox, using PyQGIS.



It affects 2.16 but also previous versions (Windows).



The bug is not reproducable in 2.4 (Linux Debian)



However, the behaviour is a slightly different in 2.16, so I am creating the issue for 2.16.



Here are the steps for reproducing the bug:



------------------



* Installing QGIS 2.16 from osgeo4w.

* Installing my Python plugin (the plugin is in C:\\OSGeo4W64\\apps\\qgis\\python\\plugins\\myplugin)

* Run the plugin. There, the output has correct encoding (same as input, UTF-8).

* Exit QGIS



* Re-Open QGIS

- ERROR:

An error occurred during execution of following code:

import pyplugin_installer
