Incompatible with multibyte characters

Open floriankick opened this issue 6 months ago • 4 comments

I tried adding german umlauts (äüö) as valid lower case letters by setting the parameter PARAMETER_LOWER_CASE $passwordGenerator->setParameter(ComputerPasswordGenerator::PARAMETER_LOWER_CASE, 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzöäüß')

Unfortunately this leads to generated passwords containing invalid utf8 characters. I believe the reason is that the library is using the "normal" string functions of PHP.

Is there any plan of upgrading to the multibyte string functions?
