The variable OPTIMAL_REF_DATA_PATH contains UTF-8 data.
But it seems my compiler is getting question marks instead of the international characters I expect.
The generator is Ninja and a quick look in build.ninja reveals that there are question marks on the command line. This makes me pretty sure that CMake is not writing the Ninja file as UTF-8.
Is it just me? Am I missing something to get this working?
None of the issues that were referred to correspond to my issue. Mine is about command line arguments to cl.exe that are written in the ninja.build as “?” instead of UTF-8.
I am so sorry, I made a mistake in reporting the Ninja version I was using. Indeed, it works with Ninja 1.11. I have Ninja 1.11 in my command line environment, but the CLion IDE I was actually using bundles and uses Ninja 1.10. My issue is with my setup.
