Cannot parse that has non latin characters about peg.jl HOT 3 CLOSED

I wasn't able to reproduce this on julia-0.6.0 on Linux; I copied and pasted your code into the REPL, and the last line returned "あaaa", not an error. I even tried it again with LC_ALL=C and LANG=C, with the same result. Can you give me more detail about your setup, and what test you did to justify saying "Julia's pcre is not broken in this case"?

from peg.jl.

Thanks for reply. My environment is the following.

julia> versioninfo()
Julia Version 0.6.2

  OS: macOS (x86_64-apple-darwin14.5.0)

To get that error, please just run LANG=C LC_ALL=C julia test.jl and test.jl is that snippet.

using PEG
@rule s = r".+"
parse_whole(s, "あaaa")

and what test you did to justify saying "Julia's pcre is not broken in this case"?

I ran this code.

julia> match(r".+", "あaaa")
RegexMatch("あaaa")

This issue has been solved by removing '~/.julia'. It seems that some old packages has affected PEG.jl . I'm sorry I could not detected these packages.
