gdal 1.8.0 has problem. when the filename is in Chinese


Kui Yang,

That is not a very detailed bug report.  GDAL 1.8 includes some changes
in the underlying handling of filenames such that filenames passed in to
GDALOpen() should be passed in UTF-8 rather than the local encoding.  This
was generally the situation already on Linux and I suppose most other unix
type operating systems.  But it was a change on windows.

Are you working on windows?

How are you encoding the filenames being passed to GDALOpen()?

As a workaround, you can restore essentially the old filename handling
behavior on windows by setting the GDAL_FILENAME_IS_UTF8 configuration
variable to "NO".  Some info on setting config options is available at:

  http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/ConfigOptions

Best regards,
