In Formatter.cpp the locale is set to ".1252". This is failing on Linux (Fedora Core 2), presumably because I lack appropriate locale files for CP1252. I haven't yet drummed up a source for these files. (Nothing at least on the first page of Google hits.) I find this info on CP1252 in Wikipedia:
What happens if the codepage isn't set correctly? At least the ASCII part should be identical. Does it miss significant infomation in the conversion process, like filenames, that have special characters e.g.?


<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows-1252>

Is this being done because the VSS files are in 1252?

Yep, that is at least what I expect. Isn't there also a linux client for VSS? what does this one do?

"locale -a" doesn't list anything similar, although it does list some 8859 ones, including en_US.iso88591. "iconv -l" does list CP1252 and Windows-1252, but I think you were avoiding using libiconv.

Could you try to use the 8859-1 codepage, since they are said to be very equal (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Latin_character_sets_%28computing%29).

And yes, I wanted to avoid the dependency on libiconv.
