Hi there,

yesterday I've open a StandardFileStream in windows on a file which has a name with latin characters like "....ção".

The code was something like:

[fileStream := StandardFileStream fileName: myFilename.

text := fileStream contents ] ensure: [fileStream close].

The text var allways has an empty string. No exceptions nor walbacks.

My workarround was just to rename the file to a plain non latin ascii for the filename. Then everything was as expected.

Cheers,

Sebastian
