Question to Vincent Snijders:
Why you hasten to close #11231 issue, in fact the problem is not solved !?

On my localized XP SP2 box FileListBox works wrongly. That even without DisableWindowsUnicodeSupport using. Font.charset settings and font turning is helpless. As i understand it, r14961 solves this problem for English XP, but raises problem for localized version.
With a fpc 2.2.1 this problem solved by some way.
It mean that's r14961 is the temporary solution for 3.3.1 brunch ? Unicode support is not fully implemented under Windows ?

It is closed, because it won't be fixed, not because it solved.

It means that currently the FileListbox works only with fpc 2.2.1 and higher provided that you don't disable windows unicode support. All other situations are not supported. It is not fixed, but it doesn't work and I "won't fix" it.

If you use the fpc 2.2.1 or fpc 2.3.1 snapshot (without recompiling to disbale unicode support), is it broken too? If so, then you can reopen the issue.

Not, without DisableWindowsUnicodeSupport FileListBox shows russian rightly.
But, without DisableWindowsUnicodeSupport, the IDE editor works wrongly, that is the other problem...

OK.

By "IDE editor works wrongly" you mean bug 11362, or something else?

I'm not sure if this is a similar issue to what we had when we implemented Windows Unicode (utf-8) support in fpGUI Toolkit. fpGUI's FileListGrid also had issues with Russian filenames under Windows. The RTL's file access methods did not take into account the file system locale. We had to create wrapper methods to help out and it works fine now. Linux was not an issue because it uses UTF-8 at filesystem level.

Code can be found in the fpGUI's svn repository. See the URL below for more details.

DisableWindowsUnicodeSupport turnings not affects on bug 11362 appearance.

Do you get this error with a lazarus (not recompiled) executable straight from the fpc 2.2.1 snapshot?

Yes, gotten; lazarus 15273.

Please, submit a bug report.

I cannot reproduce it, maybe Paul can.
