this workes fine as long as the input given does simple ascii characters

once i try using utf8 characters my input gets transferred incorrectly,
and the input file is not found and hence not read correctly,
so no thumbs could be made.


an example:
this works perfectly:
/Users/demo/myprogram /Volumes/vol1/input/file.pdf /Volumes/vol1/ output/out


this gets scrambled incorrectly:
/Users/demo/myprogram /Volumes/vol1/ïnpût/filé.pdf /Volumes/vol1/ output/out


my code:

int main (int argc, const char *argv[])
{
NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
NSLog([[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"Processing file '%s' to '% s'.",argv[1], argv[2]]);
NSString *inpath;
NSString *outpath;

inpath = [[[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"%s",argv[1]] stringByExpandingTildeInPath];
...

1) You'd have a better chance of getting this sort of question answered on the cocoa-dev mailing list. This list is for discussion of the Xcode tool environment.

2) Look at the class NSProcessInfo, and particularly its "arguments" method. See if that works any better.

3) Use [NSString stringWithFormat:] where you have [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:]. Otherwise, you're leaking the NSStrings you get from alloc.
