( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

As stated, this only works on Windows, also the OP asked for support for Windows

But on Windows I myself would prefer to use Win32::LongPath, because it supports real Unicode Directories and also filename up to 32000 chars

Have a look on the following script: (You have to create these directories first)

use strict;
use warnings;

use utf8;
use feature 'unicode_strings';
use charnames ':full';

binmode(STDOUT, ":unix:utf8");


my @strange_dirs = (
					'documentação',
					'AC_RAÍZ_CERTICÁMARA_S',
					'Катюша',
					'Катюша',
					'москва',
					'ελληνικά-русский',
										
);

for my $dir (@strange_dirs)	{
	print "Looking for directory: [$dir]\n";

	if (-d decode_u8($dir)) {
		print "Directory found: [$dir]\n";
	}
	else	{
		print "---> Error: Directory [$dir] not found <---\n";
	}
}

print "---- now the same with Win32::Longpath ----\n";

use Win32::LongPath;
 
for my $dir (@strange_dirs)	{
	print "Looking for directory: [$dir]\n";

	if (testL ('d', $dir)) {	# same as -d $dir
		print "Directory found: [$dir]\n";
	}
	else	{
		print "---> Error: Directory [$dir] not found <---\n";
	}
}
 



sub encode_u8 { my $s = shift; utf8::encode($s); $s };
sub decode_u8 { my $s = shift; utf8::decode($s); $s };

You will see that Win32::LongPath correctly displays all these directories, but -d decode_u8($dir) doesn't.

My test Environment is: Windows 10 Version 10.0.14393, Perl 64-bit (revision 5 version 22 subversion 2)

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
