I have a problem with the function getFileNamesRev

[akim]

Hello,

When using the getFileNamesRev function with the paramiter FILTER_FILES the following message appears:

SYS, WARNING, 196, Illegal byte (0xFF) in UTF-8-encoded string, Codepoint::fromUtf8

getFileNamesRev(folder,"*.bak",FILTER_FILES);

What is the problem?

Which version are you using on which OS ?
The problem you hit might have to do with non-ascii characters in the filenames you are reading, which
we probably already solved in 3.14

I use version 3.12 and Windows 7 OS. How can I solve my problem?

Hello,

as Martin Koller has written the problem is maybe caused by special characters in the filenames.
Can you please check if the script works when addressing a directory where only one file exists, e.g. about.pnl.

What are the filenames for the directory where the problem occured?

Hello,

This problem occurs when the file name contains the Russian Cyrillic.

I renamed these files. But it would be better to fix this bug.

Thanks for the help
