#156 Tolerate Unicode Escape Sequences introduced by Pact JVM Issue created by timvahlbrock *Pre issue-raising checklist*\n\nI have already (please mark the applicable with an

x

):\n\n• Upgraded to the latest version of the relevant libraries\n• Checked to see if the issue has already been raised\n• Created an executable example that demonstrates the issue using either: \n • a Dockerfile \n • a fork of https://github.com/pact-foundation/pact-ruby-standalone-e2e-example \n • a Git repository with a Travis or Appveyor (or similar) build \n • a gist with all the relevant code and full instructions on how to run it\n\n*Software versions*\n\n• pact library: pact-cli:1.4.0.3 docker image\n• pact-ruby-standalone: ?\n• OS: Container\n\n*Expected behaviour*\n\nThe CLI is able to handle unicode escape sequences introduced by Pact JVM into example values.\n\n*Actual behaviour*\n\nPact CLI throws error message for some escaped unicode characters.\n\nFor \"\\uDAA5\" pact cli may throws\n\n```\n/usr/lib/ruby/gems/3.3.0/gems/json-2.9.0/lib/json/common.rb221in `parse': incomplete surrogate pair at '\\uDAA5\", (JSON::ParserError)\n \"created\": \"2'\n\tfrom

upload it using the pact CLI. Can provide a reproduction repo if required, \"pact-ruby-standalone-e2e-example\" doesn't seem to work well on windows.\n\n*Relevent log files*\n\nsee above\n\nEdit: fixed wrong usage of keyword 'surrogate' in description pact-foundation/pact-ruby-standalone
