------------------------------------
Summary: Use wide character API on Windows
Key: LUCY-252
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCY-252
Project: Lucy
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Store
Reporter: Nick Wellnhofer
Priority: Minor
We should switch from the ANSI to the wide character API on Windows. The
benefits are:
* Support for Unicode filenames.
* Support for long path names.
The required steps are:
* Implement a method to convert UTF-8 strings to UTF-16. Maybe something like
{{ByteBuf *utf16 = CB_to_utf16(string);}}
* Switch from the 'A' to the 'W' functions of the Windows API, for example
{{CreateFileW}}. (The 'A' functions are called implicitly now.)
