c# - RestSharp ignores response charset encoding -

i'm using restsharp version 105.1.0 (.net 4.5.1) make rest call our own api. api sends responses following header of particular interest: content-type: application/json; charset=iso-8859-1. can see, charset of response set iso-8859-1.

i expect response restsharp uses encoding decode response content. however, when @ restresponse.content property, characters display �. far know means wrong encoding used. when try decoding rawbytes manually using proper encoding, correct string.

i tried manually setting iso-8859-1 encoding property on restclient no avail.

how can make sure responses restsharp decoded using right encoding?

example code:

// setting encoding here not change result var client = new restclient(myapiuri) { encoding = encoding.getencoding("iso-8859-1") }; var request = new restrequest(method.get); var restresponse = client.execute(request); console.writeline(restresponse.content) // outputs content string wrong encoding // characters display � 

thanks in advance!

i had problem, solve had byte array brings in irestresponse object , convert encode want

var request = new restrequest(method.get); var restresponse = client.execute(request);  encoding encoding = encoding.getencoding("iso-8859-1"); var result = encoding.getstring(response.rawbytes); console.writeline(result);
