Subject: [Boost-users] [filesystem] code pages support

namespace fs = boost :: filesystem;
boost :: intmax_t filesize = fs :: file_size (argv [1]);
 
This causes an exception if the name consists of cyrillic symbols. (Windows XP, MinGW). Does boost :: filesystem support these names.

[Nat] Maybe try:

boost :: intmax_t filesize = fs :: file_size (fs::path(argv [1], fs::no_check));

This uses an explicit conversion to fs::path rather than an implicit one, which allows you to explicitly disable the path syntax checker.

I always disable the path syntax checker. It doesn't even support ASCII names well. ;-)
