  • Ticket #4097 – Description

    initial v1  
    11Dear Sir,
    22  I have been using the GDAL library for several years. As far as I know, it is really the best translator library for raster geospatial data formats. It is very lucky for me to have such an excellent product. I really admire your contributive work. But I have encountered a serious bug in the GDAL 1.8.0 version when I tried to open an image file in Chinese. The problem is described as follows. The test program can be found in the attached files. Please give me some advice. Thank you very much.
    3   By the way, I think it would be better that if you provide an overloading edition accepting a UNICODE filename for the function of “GDALOpen()”. After all, internationalization is so popular that a filename cannot be presented only with ANSI character set. As is well known, Windows 2000 and later version operating system treat all of the texts as UNICODE characters natively. Thus, it would be more efficient if we use UNICODE characters handle filenames.
