Crash / Bad Access with umlaut parameters in domain

[cwack-letsdev]

Execution a request appending an umlaut parameter (äüö) occurs a BAD Access Exception in method:

private func URLRequest(method: Method, URL: URLStringConvertible) -> NSURLRequest {
at let mutableURLRequest = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: NSURL(string: URL.URLString)!)

Can you post a code sample that reproduces this behavior?

[cwack-letsdev]

I simply made an URL request with POST or even GET method.

e.g. url: http://www.domain.de/service.php?id=123&email=abcd@tür.de

"http://www.domain.de/service.php?id=123&email=abcd@tür.de" is not a valid URL, as it needs to percent-encode the non-ASCII characters. This could be documented better.

Why not pass ["id": "123", "email": "abcd@tür.de"] as parameters? Alamofire will automatically escape that for you.

eb4a945 documents the requirement for a URLString to conform to RFC 2396.
