This issue has been migrated from old Barrier Github repository debauchee/barrier#860

Issue last updated on: 2021-09-16
Currently, Barrier has limited UTF-8 support, and that has led to issues being reported with various languages being processed wrongly.
We need to work on this. I would like to get it in for the v2.4 release, or earlier.

Hi, thanks for your comment. You can react to the original post with :+1:, rather than commenting, as that does not add constructive information to the issue.
Thank you.

Just wanted to further add that this behavior also occurs when pasting from a linux host to a mac osx client (consistently in some apps but not all. Textedit, Firefox, Paste.app seems to process the paste correctly, iMessage however does not.

Will this address the fact that I cannot type Ǐǐ (i with caron) and ȷ (dotless j) through barrier, or I should create another issue for this?
I get can't map keycode to key id message in the debug log.
Thanks.

Presumably that's Unicode? if so, yes, it should resolve that.

this is how it looks like when I copy paste from MacOS Big Sur 11.5.1 to Win10 20H2 via Barrier 2.3.3 (PC is server, Mac is client). Don't know if this helps tracking this issue down...

This does help, as it gives an example of UTF-8 behaviour. Thank you! 🙌🏻

Maybe I am missing something, but suspect after #910 got merged, basically all my UTF-8 issues with dead key went away. My guess is most of the people does not use the builds from master, so maybe it is time for proper release?
