Search Chinese characters get a wrong result (hsf 2.3-279)

[stonecooper]

Hi, I'm using hfs 2.3-279 to build up a file share server. But the search function seems not work well on Chinese characters, English works well.
See the attachment,
I was trying to search "测试" in search box, the search result not only return only contain "测试" files and folder, but actually return all the files and folder which are contain any Chinese characters.

I'm not sure it's a bug a somthing I did a wrong config in somewhere...

Could you please help me.

Thanks a lot.

honestly i don't know,
also: i cannot test it, because HFS is not 100% unicode, so i would need a chinese Windows (that i would not even be able to use)

Hi rejetto

Could you please give me some clue that how does the search file mechanism works.  I read the code the templates but not get a clear answer.

May be I can confirm it's a bug or somthing eles.

Thanks for your help.

the search is totally made by the program, not the template.
what HFS does is to recursively walk the folders, to list all items, but ALSO apply a filter, so that only those complying the filter are displayed.

if it's a bug, i need to be able to reproduce the problem. The problem is that i don't have a chinese system.

Is that possiable if I provid you a Chinese system of VitrualBox vdi file? Then you can run a Chinese system in a virtual mechine.

Don't worry, you don't need usderstand Chinese, most Windows XP looks the same. And I will provide the test case, you can compare the search result.
