Does the autodie-pragma have influence on the encoding?

Question

Why do I get after the \"autodie\" a different output?

#!/usr/bin/env perl
use warnings;
use 5.012;
use utf8;
use open \':encoding(utf-8)\';
use open \':std         


        

Answer 1

Unless someone comes in with a better reason, this looks like a bug with autodie in relation to the open pragma.

Changing the last open to open my $fh2, '<:utf8', 'test.txt'; fixes the problem on my system. So that could be a temporary work around.

I just checked RT, and this is a registered bug:

Looks like it has to do with each pragma using different ways of overloading the open function.
