Okay, but how do I determine what to do at runtime? On my system I have three different file names that I am testing with:
1) All english characters 2) All japanese characters 3) Uses european characeters (�)
If I use uniEncode (myfileName, "Japanese") then cases 1 and 2 work but not 3.
If I use uniEncode (myFileName, "UTF8") then cases 1 works but not 2 and 3.
If I use uniEncode (myFileName, "UTF16") then cases 1 and 3 work but not 2.
So how do I determine which encoding to use on a string so it displays correctly? Or is there an encoding that I am missing which converts correctly every time? I am still very new to unicode so I apologize if I am missing something obvious.
Well I think we need to support unicode or UTF8 paths names, using the
useunicode property, which I plan to do in the near future. Current there is
no way to know:-( because to be compatible with the previous behavior we
convert from UTF8 to the system script and vice versa.
Please feature request this and I'll work on finding a workaround.
This has been entered into Bugzilla as BUG # 674 (feature request). If anyone knows of a workaround so that I can correctly display whatever pathname a user chooses that would be great. This is the last feature I need to get working in a program for a client that is already past due.
