If Unicode support is enabled, sb-posix:stat fails with Unicode filenames on Windows. After some digging in SBCL source code/ MSFT documentations, I have found that calling foreign function _wstat instead of _stat does the trick.
See: https://github.com/sbcl/sbcl/blob/master/contrib/sb-posix/interface.lisp#L597
I used the following code to define sb-posix::wstat which I had to use in my code instead of sb-posix:stat.
(sb-posix::define-stat-call "_wstat"
sb-posix::pathname sb-posix::filename
(function sb-posix::int (sb-posix::c-string :external-format :ucs-2)
(* sb-posix::alien-stat)))
Which is a rather hacky workaround, so it would be nice if SBCL supported this out of the box.
To reproduce run (sb-posix:stat "some filename containing unicode characters")
I was using Windows threaded build "1.1.4.0.mswin.1288-90ab477", but the same problem clearly exists in the latest source code as linked above. |
