It says,

   The "platform_xxx" calls represent platform-specific conversion routines.

I think that means you would use routines that are specific to your operating system, not supplied by libcurl.

Anyway, you don't need EBCDIC conversion. Windows normally stores file names as UTF-16. Conversion between UTF-16 and UTF-8 can be done using functions in the Windows API.

Unfortunately I don't actually know what you need to do; maybe change this

#define CURL_ICONV_CODESET_OF_NETWORK "ISO8859-1"

to

#define CURL_ICONV_CODESET_OF_NETWORK "UTF-8"

(I'm only guessing, based on <http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_setopt.html#CURLOPTCONVFROMUTF8FUNCTION>)

but I hope someone who actually knows will give you a better answer.

Best wishes,

Tom
