Issue with unicode characters

[RaviJ]

Hi,

I am passing unicode character from java to autoIt script as :

String filePath = "E:\\ravi\\腿哦哦予以.ppt";
System.out.println(filePath);
String exeFile = "SingleFileUpload.exe";  //autoIt script
dialog =  new String[]{ exeFile,"ie",filePath };
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(dialog);

But when i access filePath parameter from autoIt script, i am getting as ???? instead of correct value of parameter.

MsgBox(0, "File Path:", $CmdLine[2])
ControlSetText($title,"","Edit1", $CmdLine[2])

Getting E:\ravi\????.ppt as value of $CmdLine[2] which is filePath

Thanks,

Ravi

Hi Ravi,

Just go through this page http://www.scintilla.org/SciTEDoc.html and you will find some settings which will do the work.

I have done some settings change and looks like things are getting done.

Thank you,

Bhima

Exactly the same issue as yours in a Java bug report: http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=4947220

From that page:

Here's the source for the workaround as mentioned by sdaw:

String[] cmd = new String[]{"yourcmd.exe","Japanese CLI argument: \ufeff\u30cb\u30e5\u30fc\u30b9"};     
    Map<String, String> newEnv = new HashMap<String, String>();
    newEnv.putAll(System.getenv());
    String[] i18n = new String[cmd.length + 2];
    i18n[0] = "cmd";
    i18n[1] = "/C";
    i18n[2] = cmd[0];
    for (int counter = 1; counter < cmd.length; counter++)
    {
        String envName = "JENV_" + counter;
        i18n[counter + 2] = "%" + envName + "%";
        newEnv.put(envName, cmd[counter]);
    }
    cmd = i18n;

    ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder(cmd);
    Map<String, String> env = pb.environment();
    env.putAll(newEnv);
    final Process p = pb.start();
