Created attachment 358821 [details] Patch Temporary fix for bad template deducation when ICU switched to the UChar=char16_t typedef. With this definition, the specliazation for Signed && Integral wins over the typedef for UChar

Comment on attachment 358821 [details] Patch View in context: https://bugs.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=358821&action=review > Tools/TestWebKitAPI/Tests/WTF/StringConcatenate.cpp:88 > -#if PLATFORM(WIN) > +#if PLATFORM(WIN) || U_ICU_VERSION_MAJOR_NUM >= 59 > EXPECT_EQ("hello 42 world", makeString("hello ", static_cast<unsigned short>(42) , " world")); > #else > EXPECT_EQ("hello * world", makeString("hello ", static_cast<unsigned short>(42) , " world")); // Treated as a character. I wonder how many bugs this behavior difference is causing. This is really unfortunate. :/ I almost gave this r-, but the new version is better and the old approach will be obsoleted eventually. Can we remove the #if PLATFORM(WIN), though? Surely that is there because they were using newer ICU?

IIUC, Windows hits the problem for a different reason, not sure if they use ICU, but on that platform UChar=wchar_t rather than unsigned short as assumed in this test.
