#309 failure to creat log file having unicode characters in its filepath

[Saood]

1. created a folder path for creating the log file as follows
   /Users/<someName>/私は食べに行くよ
2. I built log4cplus 1.2.2 using the following command on OSX Mavericks
   ./configure CXX="clang++ -arch i386 -stdlib=libstdc++" --with-working-locale
3. The following code is expected to create a log file in the specified path as shown in (1), here fileName value recieved is /Users/<someName>/私は食べに行くよ/log.txt

void LogImpl::setFile(const std::wstring &fileName)
{
  log4cplus::tstring ts;
  ts.assign(fileName.begin(), fileName.end());
  log4cplus::RollingFileAppender *rfa = new log4cplus::RollingFileAppender(ts, 
  DMLOG_MAXSIZE_PERFILE, DMLOG_MAXFILES_FORLOG);
  //...
  //...
  //...
}

4 Unfrtunately, the log file does not get created.
5. When i try the same thing with the non-unicode path, it works fine.

Can you please help me understand what mistake is being done in the above steps.

What I noticed is log4cplus::tstring ts - this variable is failing to recognize unicode characters and replaces all unicode characters with alphanumerics as follows
log4cplus::tstring "/Users/<somename>/\xc1o\xdfykLO\x88/test.log"</somename>

Try without --with-working-locale configuration and try to use --with-working-c-locale instead.

I wonder if the above suggestion to use --with-working-c-locale has helped or not.
