[ruby-core:97246]

Description

String#encode document says fallback can be a Hash, a Proc, a Method or an object which has [] method.

Sets the replacement string by the given object for undefined character. The object should be a Hash, a Proc, a Method, or an object which has [] method
https://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/2.7.0/String.html#method-i-encode

But actually an object with [] does not work.

Reproduce:

class C
  def [](str)
    '!'
  end
end

str = "\u00b7\u2014"
p str.encoding # => #<Encoding:UTF-8>

# It works
p str.encode("Windows-31J", fallback: C.new.method(:[]))
# => "!!"

# It does not work
p str.encode("Windows-31J", fallback: C.new)
# => U+00B7 from UTF-8 to Windows-31J (Encoding::UndefinedConversionError)
