Method: ActiveSupport::Multibyte::Unicode#tidy_bytes

Defined in:
lib/active_support/multibyte/unicode.rb,
lib/active_support/multibyte/unicode.rb

#tidy_bytes(string, force = false) ⇒ Object

Replaces all ISO-8859-1 or CP1252 characters by their UTF-8 equivalent resulting in a valid UTF-8 string.

Passing true will forcibly tidy all bytes, assuming that the string’s encoding is entirely CP1252 or ISO-8859-1.
