Issue appeared to @dkrupp when doing the "show bug's line in diff" for #723.
For example, in FFMpeg, some files' header contains the following line:
œ
is encoded in Unicode as\u0153
, but Thrift's python client used byCodeChecker cmd
only accepts\u00xy
in the transmitted JSON, otherwise, anUnexpected token: 1
is thrown and the connection dies.Solution is to introduce a new method to encode the file output (optionally) as a base64 string, which in turn can be sent over Thrift via no exceptions and decoded later on.
