curl-library
encoding of file:// URL on Windows
Date: Thu, 7 Aug 2014 08:10:41 -0600 (MDT)
Hi,
I'm having problems using non-ascii characters with libcurl. I am getting errors that files cannot be found.
From lib/file.c, it appears to be using the ANSI API open() for file URLs, which does not work with all possible file names.
This was reported a few years back: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2010-05/0121.html
But it doesn't appear to be fixed.
What encoding does libcurl expect from the caller when setting the CURLOPT_URL option? UTF-8 or the Windows ANSI code page?
The answer to that would help make a correct patch.
Thanks,
Clinton
