Asian characters in File GDB's name when creating it with FGDB API 1.4

SantosFernandez_Noguerol1 — Wed, 14 Sep 2016 16:33:06 GMT

I've been struggling with File Geodatabase API 1.4 for VS2012 the last two days because when I try to create a new FGDB, it does, but its name is preceded by two asian characters. For instance: "皠ĺname.gdb", and not "name.gdb".

As it can be seen on the attached zip file, the code is very simple, in fact, is a reduced copy of the samples provided with the API named "GeodatabaseManagement.cpp". I've also added the executable, the resulting FGDB and a screen capture showing those strange characters.

I'm currently using Windows 10 x64 in Spanish.

Any clue?

It is been more than three months since I created this topic. Is not there any clue about what the problem is?

Thank you.

My guess would be some issue, bug?, with the language localization. That said, I don't develop against the File Geodatabase API, so I can't test anything myself. What if you change the OS from Spanish to English? Does the problem go away, are there different characters? I realize changing to English permanently isn't a solution, but temporarily doing it might help narrow down the problem.

If you have an avenue to open an Esri Support case, I would. This seems like a bug, but it would be good to work through the issue with Esri since it is reproducible on your end.

Hello, my English is very poor,i hope you can understand ,I have encountered the same problems , I think it may be due to dll file import error . when you debug, only import FileGDBAPID.dll and FileGDBAPID.lib , Do not introduce FileGDBAPI.dll and FileGDBAPI .lib. but when you release ，otherwise . This problem is solved.

I'll check it out and I'll let the community know the results (it might take some days).

Thank you
