The (unmaintained) .NET wrapper does not support UTF-8 encoded strings. There are no plans to resurrect or change it in any shape or form. However, there are plans for a complete PInvoke-based low-level .NET API. Stay tuned.

While creating works, when enumerating through Groups that have UTF8 names (using H5G.iterate()), in the callback function I always get ?????? as objectName. It seems to me as if working with UTF8 Strings through the .NET wrapper is not really working/implemented correctly. Is this right ? And are there plans on support for UTF8 (or any other Unicode Strings) in the .NET wrapper ?
