Ruby does not allow
File.join
to be called with non-ascii_compatibleencoded strings, like
UTF-16LE
[1]. As a result, if any of the CSIDLconstants, e.g. COMMON_APPDATA, are used in
File.join
it fails with:The ffi branch calls the wide versions of
SHGetFolderPathW
, and appearsto always have this issue. The master branch calls the ANSI versions, which
only exhibit the problem when using a non-ASCII locale, e.g. Italian
(locale 0410).
This commit ensures all CSIDL constants are encoded using the default
external encoding, similar to what is done for
Dir::getwd
.Note I suspect the junction code has the same problem, e.g.
read_junction
