[Closed]Unicode symbols

[leo150]

Hi everyone,

I use QFileDialog to parse file path and then open it with OpenCV. My code is:

@QString fileName = QFileDialog::getOpenFileName();

Mat imageMat = imread( fileName.toLocal8Bit().constData() );@

And this works fine but my imageMat is empty when I use non-latin characters. How to get image with unicode path?

Regards.

UPD:
Imread isn't working with non-ascii directories/paths.

Try using "QTextCodec":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qtextcodec.html

Can you explain in more detail please? I use

@QTextCodec *codec = QTextCodec::codecForName("UTF-8");
QTextCodec::setCodecForLocale(codec);@

But it does not have any effect.

TextCodec is need to convert not UTF to UTF and vice versa. For example:
@
QTextCodec *codec = QTextCodec::codecForName("CP1251");
...
QByteArray cp1251Array = codec->fromUnicode(utfString);
QByteArray utfArray = codec->toUnicode(cp1251Array);
