Re: php can't resolve 8.3 paths to unicode filenames, is that expected ?

I don't know. But it should be irrelevant since php interpreter doesn't see any of the non-ascii chars when given short path. But anyway... Greek and Cyrylic letters are in the 3 byte range ? I thought that only applies to CKJ chars. > This is > definitively a bug in the CRT and I have to discuss that with my > colleagues from the vc team. Ok, so can you look at this bug report and tell me it is really a duplicate: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65358 in the bugs marked as duplicate people tried to put non 7b chars actually into php file handling functions while I do not. Or there should be a new bug filled with precise statement that not all shortened unicode paths are affected ?
