> Description of problem:
> This bug is in reference to the new messaging APIs.
> The handling of strings is different between the C++ and Python messaging APIs.
>  The Python API assumes strings on-the-wire are UTF-8 encoded.  The C++ API
> apparently uses raw, unencoded octet arrays.
> If a binary string of octets (with some octets > 0x7F), is encoded by a C++
> client and received by a Python client, the Python client will throw an
> exception.
> Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
> SVN revision 924529 and prior.
> How reproducible:
> 100%
> Steps to Reproduce:
> 1. Use the C++ API (qpid::messaging) to produce a map-message (using
> MapContent).  One of the map entries should have a string value and should
> contain a sequence such as "!E\xf9\xf5\xdf\x89d\x011\xc0\xc8$7H\x99T"
> 2. Use the python client to receive the message.
> Actual results:
> The Python client will throw an exception when it tries to UTF8-decode the
> string.
> Expected results:
> Either Python should use raw-octet encoding or C++ should use UTF8.  I expect
> the string seen by the Python receiver to be identical to that sent by the C++
> producer.
