Symfony version(s) affected: 5.0.4

Description
German Umlauts ignored in Console Question Helper

How to reproduce

protected function execute(InputInterface $objInput, OutputInterface $objOutput)
{
	$objHelper = $this->getHelper('question');

	$objQuestion = new Question('Title: ');

	$strTitle = $objHelper->ask($objInput, $objOutput, $objQuestion);

	$objOutput->writeln($strTitle);

        return 0;
}

If i type "aaaöäübbb" in console i just get "aaa\\bbb" as outout. If i just type umlauts like "öäü" the output is empty.

Please provide a bit more info:

  • OS you use
  • PHP version
  • Terminal you use (maybe it is an issue with a specific terminal)
  • encoding you use in your terminal.

  • Windows 10
  • PHP 7.4.1
  • Default Windows Command and GIT bash
  • Dont know. Where can i find/set it?

Its not limited by the output. It happens when i write file too or in my case communicate with the shopify API.

Maybe it's a encoding problem with your os?
I tested your example code with the same input and get the correct output with umlauts.
My setup:

  • MacOS 10.15.4
  • PHP 7.4.4
  • Default Mac Terminal
  • Should be UTF-8

I could reproduce the this on Windows 10.0.19041.173 using cmd, PowerShell 5.1 and PowerShell 7.0. Changing the active console code page to 65001 chcp 65001 did not bring the desired outcome. Not sure yet, how to solve this.

It looks like an encoding issue of the shell. Execution on the WSL works fine.

I opened an issue related to this issue: #36324. I think, this issue is due to the fgets function here:

$ret = fgets($inputStream, 4096);

I explained this in more detail in my comment.

To ask a question to a user, the [QuestionHelper](https://github.com/symfony/symfony/blob/master/src/Symfony/Component/Console/Helper/QuestionHelper.php) use [`fgets`](https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fgets.php). However, special characters are not supported on Windows with this function (like accents: `é`, `à`, `ö`). The solution is to set a special encoding with [`sapi_windows_cp_get`](https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.sapi-windows-cp-get).

> Before
```php
$stream = fopen('php://stdin', 'r');
$input = fgets($stream);
echo $input;

// input: "Bonjour à tous"
// output: 'Bonjour \ tous" or "Bonjour   tous"
```

> After
```php
// Check if the function exists because it only exists on Windows
if(function_exists('sapi_windows_cp_set')) {
    sapi_windows_cp_get(437);
}

$stream = fopen('php://stdin', 'r');
$input = fgets($stream);
echo $input;

// input: "Bonjour à tous"
// output: 'Bonjour à tous"
```

*Thanks to @bnjmnfnk for the solution 😉*

Corrects previous fixes that dealt with the mojibake problem on Windows where an OEM code page was applied to an input string and then messed with PHP.internal_encoding setting used by the script. This caused strings with different encodings to be displayed on the console output.
