Remko,

thanks a lot for the link, I had a short look at your patch.
For our current plans of switching from Python 2.x to 3.x, the code changes themselves might not be that helpful right now, because we still don't know how exactly our Unicode support will look like internally.

But what's important is that we don't forget about this Value issue that you detected. So it would help us a lot if you could create a simple testcase for this, which breaks with the current code but should run successfully in the end. A single SConstruct is fine, a full testcase according to "QMTest/test-framework.rst" is better. ;)

When rewriting the core sources towards 3.x we could then use this test (and others that probably follow) to ensure that things work as expected.

My plan is to open a Wiki page for the whole Unicode conversion, which would then contain a link to your issue #2910. So if you attach your testcase there, it won't get forgotten.

Regards,

Dirk

Have you tried to actually compile/build stuff that uses Unicode chars in
filenames? Or are you only analyzing the dependencies?
The real problem I have isn't with actually with files, but with
Values() with unicode characters in them (which are also printed
verbatim in the tree).

Can you please attach
your patch to the Tigris tracker issue or point us to the repository, if you
cloned the SCons sources?
