Hello !

Because I just dled from several french xnap users today, I
just observed that all characters with accents (é - č - ŕ - ů -
ô - ę - â - î - ű) are replaced with the letter following with
"?", in every files names included accents.

example : "be?be?" instead of "bébé", or "a? venir"
instead of "ŕ venir" etc....

(indeed, french language has many many accents, as
italian)

The problem is : the files with accents replaced by ? are not
recognized, neither by xnap nor other clients (according to
some other people with winmx or audiognome). They are
not downloadable, every try to dl them always fails.

Only xnap does this replacement. It is an xnap bug. When
a winmx or an audiognome user has files with accents,
usually it is replaced with another letter with a different
accent, like (by example é = Ę) and it still works.

Thanks to fix it !

    It's not XNap's bug, and not Java's bug.
    This problem depends on Unicode 3 General Punctuation Architecture.
    NTFS & HFS+ are using Unicode 3 in their file system.

    When convert from Unicode 3 to UTF-16 (Java),
    this miss conversation was happen.

    When convert from UTF-16 to Unicode 3,
    this problem was not happen.

    To prevent this problem,
    When file.getName() command are loaded,
    new filtering class are needed.

    Now I was making Japanese accents characters
    conversation table.
    It is necessary French edition to make to similar...

    As this bug is caused by the operating system and not by XNap we
    will close this report. We are planning to release a special version of
    XNap in the next few weeks that has the accent composer patch
    applied.
