c# - Why does Uri.EscapeDataString return a different result on my CI server compared to my development machine? -

on desktop machine, this..

var result = uri.escapedatastring("zdskjhf&*^65sdfh/.<>\\sdf"); // result == zdskjhf%26%2a%5e65sdfh%2f.%3c%3e%5csdf

now, on ci server part of result not encoded.... this

\\ result == zdskjhf%26*%5e65sdfh%2f.%3c%3e%5csdf

notice asterisk in middle of sec result? in first result, it's getting encoded.

can explain what's going on, please?

update 1:

here's .net fiddle using .net 4.5 , shows asterisk encoded...

so mean machine and .net fiddle both wrong ? or both right , ci server wrong?

some diagnostic info build server.. microsoft (r) build engine version 12.0.30723.0 [microsoft .net framework, version 4.0.30319.34209] copyright (c) microsoft corporation. rights reserved.

(i'm not sure how info, local dev machine. it's win8.1 + vs 2013 update 3.)

all projects .net 4.5 ...not 4.5.1

update 2:

i've decided run code on .net frameworks (that matter). here's results.

data: abcde *.(.)." .net 2.0: abcde%20*.(.). .net 3.0: abcde%20*.(.). .net 3.5: abcde%20*.(.). .net 4.0: abcde%20*.(.). -- msdn notes: bug fixed here -- .net 4.5: abcde%20%2a.%28.%29. .net 4.5.1: abcde%20%2a.%28.%29. .net 4.5.2: abcde%20%2a.%28.%29. .net 4.5.3: abcde%20%2a.%28.%29.

this suggests that

< .net 4.5, values not encoded. kewl, fine. >= .net 4.5 values encoded.

link: this similar question. ref: this build result ci server includes lots of debug info...

.net 4.5 changed behavior of method. search "escape".

c# .net encoding
