Confirmed to happen when I run my NetBeans Platform Application in a folder named "test-æøå". Looking at nblauncher.cpp, the check for non-ascii characters dates back to 2013; it relates to problems with the Windows command line interface not understanding certain characters. https://bz.apache.org/netbeans/show_bug.cgi?id=222850 https://bz.apache.org/netbeans/show_bug.cgi?id=222846 I suspect that the check in nblauncher.cpp might actually be too strict; there's a good chance that any character encodable in Windows' default locale-dependent codepage might be fine. Perhaps a "Run Anyway" button could be added to the warning dialog, so that the user could proceed and then report the actual problems that result. I suspect it should be possible to fix them, perhaps adjusting Windows API calls to use UTF-8 etc. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
