Re: Problem in accessing files with unicode fonts.

A. Your reason for emailing us off-list makes no sense. The list would
garner you more and about as quick responses, not to mention the value
it adds through public archiving. CC-ing us /might/ have made slight
sense.
B. This is your problem:
v = unicode(full_path,errors='skip')
I'd advise you to read the docs for `unicode`, particularly what using
'skip' as the value of `errors` does.
Good day.

Hello,.
Sorry for mailing to your personal mails instead of mailing to
the group. The reason being the intensity of the problem and time factor.
Prob: I have a folder which contains files with unicode names ( Arabic,
German etc). I am trying to obtain the attributes of those files recursively
using win32api.getFileAttributes() function. Here is the code which i have
for the same:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/env python
import os
import os.path
import sys
import urllib
import win32api,string
def findFile(dir_path):
for name in os.listdir(dir_path):
full_path = os.path.join(dir_path, name)
print full_path
if os.path.isdir(full_path):
findFile(full_path)
else:
v = unicode(full_path,errors='skip')
i = win32api.GetFileAttributes(v)
findFile("F:\\DataSet\\Unicode")
---------------------------------------------------------------
Now when I run this scirpt, the full_path variable which should contain the
name of the file has "????" for non english ( I tried Arabic) characters. As
a result the getfileattributes function is failing to recognise that file
and is raising an exception.
full_path: F:\DataSet\Unicode\Arabic files\Arabic??????????????????????????
{type is str}
v: F:\DataSet\Unicode\Arabic files\Arabic?????????????????????????? {type is
unicode}
TraceBack:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "E:\venu\Testing Team\unitest.py", line 19, in <module>
findFile("F:\\DataSet\\Unicode")
File "E:\venu\Testing Team\unitest.py", line 13, in findFile
findFile(full_path)
File "E:\venu\Testing Team\unitest.py", line 16, in findFile
i = win32api.GetFileAttributes(v)
error: (123, 'GetFileAttributes', 'The filename, directory name, or volume
label syntax is incorrect.')
Waiting for your reply.
Thank you in advance.
Venu.
