People also have zip files, which unfortunately may have various encoding in them, since the only normative encoding for zip files is cp437… I have a bunch of such zip files, that : - cannot be extracted with gui tools - will result in bad filenames (including invalid utf-8) when extracted using « stupid » command line tools. IMHO saying « the problem does not exist » is not a good answer, because if it really didn’t this issue would never have been raised. The questions to answer are : - is it worth breaking lot of code ? (because it will : a good solution needs a complete refactor of qt io code, just providing a QFilePath class will not be enough) - will it be ready before c++ provides a core solution ? - is there someone willing to do it ?
