NDN can't copy files with apostrophes on network drives

Recommended Posts

[edit] OK, cancel the "network drive" part of the subject, I eliminated that factor.

 

So, beta 9289 chokes when attempting to copy files that have an inverted apostrophe (U+00B4) in their name (such as "08-When you´re gone.mp3"). The error mesage is

Cannot open the file
<path>08-When you're gone.mp3
Skip?

 

Note that in NDN, the inverted apostrophe is displayed as a normal apostrophe (U+0027) BUT: NDN can view (F3) the file; it just can't copy it.

 

My guess is the bug lies in the difference between opening a file for viewing vs. for copying.

 

Bottom line, how does NDN handle filenames that contain non-ASCII characters? I hate such characters and never create that kind of filenames, although I work as a localization engineer at Yahoo. But if you want me to throw some tests at NDN, I'll be glad to.

 

Hope that helps,

Dan
