I'm using WindowsXP but I need a solution that works on any version of windows. The encoding of file names appears to be ANSI and the string that was passed as a parameter seems to be UTF-8. Here is a link to the problem that i'm having. http://boost.codepad.org/nmwVlgta

I believe it expects a std::string in ASCII or a std::wstring assuming UTF-16 on windows. If your file is not ascii, you need to either convert to the current internationalized code page (untested by me) or UTF-16. I had issues like this recently where on Linux we expect a std::string containing UTF-8, so we had the same thing happening on Windows. This didn't work for non-ascii items, so we convert to UTF-16 on windows, which then works properly. Brian
