Re: About Boa constructor 0.6.1

I might have sent this message already, but it vanished (not in
outbox) when I hit "send"... weird.

winXP home, wxpy 2.8 unicode, boa from CVS.

I was having a problem with accents in the path. My home folder is :
"C:\Documents andSettings\ianaré"

Opening boa on first run gave me this :

  File "Boa.py", line 711, in <module>
    main()
  File "Boa.py", line 693, in main
    app = BoaApp()
  File "Boa.py", line 497, in __init__
    wx.App.__init__(self, False)
  File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\wx-2.8-msw-unicode\wx\_core.py", line 7823
, in __init__
    self._BootstrapApp()
  File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\wx-2.8-msw-unicode\wx\_core.py", line 7420
, in _BootstrapApp
    return _core_.PyApp__BootstrapApp(*args, **kwargs)
  File "Boa.py", line 540, in OnInit
    inspector = Inspector.InspectorFrame(self.main)
  File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\boa-constructor\Inspector.py",
line 157, in __init__
    cmpInf.append(self.paletteImages.Add(IS.load(filename)))
  File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\boa-constructor\ImageStore.py",
line 78, in load
    imgpath, ext = self.pathExtFromName(rootpath, name)
  File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\boa-constructor\ImageStore.py",
line 69, in pathExtFromName
    self.checkPath(imgPath)
  File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\boa-constructor\ImageStore.py",
line 98, in checkPath
    raise InvalidImgPathError, _('%s not valid') %imgPath
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe9 in position 31: ordinal
 not in range(128)

--------------------------------------------

I fixed it by editing ImageStore.py, starting at line 65 :

    def pathExtFromName(self, root, name):
        root = root.decode(sys.getfilesystemencoding())
        imgPath = self.canonizePath(os.path.join(root, name))
        ext = os.path.splitext(name)[1]
        self.checkPath(imgPath)
        return imgPath, ext


".decode(sys.getfilesystemencoding())" is what I use in all my unicode
applications for this kind of problem.

Cheers !
