    Description

      Sometimes when I build a Qt C++ app (MinGW) and open it with arguments in Windows 10, it shows Unicode arguments as question marks. I don't really know when but I think it depends on parameter's length and being or not being whitespaces in parameter.

       

      For example (demonstration):

      ( chcp 65001 )
       

      >app.exe سلام

      receives: سلام

       

      >app.exe سلاممممم

      receives: سلاممممم

       

      >app.exe سلامممممم

      receives: ?????????

       

      >app.exe d:\خطا

      receives: d:???

       

      >app.exe "d:\خطا دار"

      receives: d:\خطا دار

       

      >app.exe C:\Users\Reza\Desktop\خطا.txt

      receives: C:\Users\Reza\Desktop???.txt

       

      >app.exe C:\Users\Default\Desktop\خطا.txt

      receives: C:\Users\Default\Desktop\خطا.txt

       

       

      I tested using QCommandLineParser, and also app.arguments() but all were the same.

       

      Even I checked values stored in argv[] manually and even there, some Unicode characters where stored as question marks.
