[asterisk-bugs] [JIRA] (ASTERISK-24113) Can't input Chinese in Asterisk console (context name contains Chinese characters)

[Matt Jordan (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-24113?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Matt Jordan closed ASTERISK-24113.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

I'm sorry, but Asterisk does not understand UTF-8/UTF-16 characters in a large number of places, nor does it claim to be able to do so.

While such a feature may be highly desirable, it would require sweeping changes and improvements to all of Asterisk. I don't see that occurring in released branches, and would require a patch before it would be considered as a possible issue to address.
