Description ¶
When the machine system's locale is EN, the SHP Provider can't create a new SHP file with attribute name contains multi-bytes characters like Chinese or Asian characters. It seems that provider just do 'Ansi2Wide' with codepage in system's locale which is not always correct. Sometimes we have to use UTF-8 to make the conversion correct. I think it is a defect of Globalization.

Before apply schema the locale has to set like:
setlocale(LC_ALL, "Japanese");
Then the .cpg file will contain the codepage. Otherwise the system locale will be used.
