The TdxURI.EscapeDataString procedure throws an exception if the target string contains characters with diacritics

created 5 years ago (modified 5 years ago)

Reproduce by using your CloudStorageDemo and upload a file with non-ansi chars in name (e.g. German Umlauts: "Größe.jpg").
This results in a exception in TdxUriHelper.EscapeDataString() "Invalid destination array."

    Hello,

    We tried to replicate the issue with a file named "Größe.jpg" on several machines, but failed.
    Could you please send us extra information that can help us determine the cause of the issue?

    1. Please send us the file where the issue occurs (perhaps, the cause relates to the file);
    2. Send us screenshots of your locale settings. We will adjust our system in a similar manner.
    3. Share the string that is used in the EscapeDataString method as a parameter.

      Tried again: Reproducible with your unmodified demo (32bit - but happens in my App with x64).
      Put in my IDs, logged in to MS and just uploaded a file called "Größe.jpg" (this is also the string EscapeDataString receives).
      I hope the attached screen shot shows all this quite clear.
      My system language is German with default settings.

      A file called "über.jpg" has the same issue - just one Umlaut in front.
      "e´lle.jpg" or "élle.jpg" also fails.
      Parent folder makes not difference.
