Bug #9930
closed![Assignee: windows](/images/group.png?1722288379)
unicode filenames somehow don't work
Description
Something seems amiss here--I can't seem to pass in a unicode filename and have it used for reading/opening a file:
C:\>type read.rb
p ARGV
p Dir['*']
p File.binread(ARGV[0]).size
c:\>ruby read.rb "( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).mp4"
["( ?\xB0 ?? ?\xB0).mp4"]
["( ?\xB0 ?? ?\xB0).mp4"]
read.rb:3:in `binread': Invalid argument - ( ?° (Errno::EINVAL)
from read.rb:3:in `<main>'
(jruby too, fwiw...)

ARGV
is still in the default external encoding, i.e., console codepage.
We'd like to make them UTF-8, but have no concrete migration plan yet.

- Status changed from Open to Closed
As of Ruby 3.0, ARGV values are in UTF-8 encoding by default on Windows.
