Quelea fails to open or save file if path contains unicode characters

[kukymbr]

Quelea fails to save files with Unicode non-latin characters in the path: if file name contains these characters, the file is saved with ? symbols instead of them; if the directory name contains unicode characters, operation is failing at all.

Also, it fails when opening paths with unicode.

Ubuntu 22.04, Quelea 2024.0 quelea-debuglog.txt

Hmm, is this on Mac? It works for me fine on Windows:

If so, there's nothing we're explicitly doing to manage file locations that I can think of that would cause this issue, so I'm tempted to say this is another reason to expedite https://github.com/quelea-projection/Quelea/issues/641.

Nope, this is Ubuntu 22.04 machine

Cool, I'll try on the VM and let you know

@kukymbr This should now be fixed in the CI release - as part of the Java 21 / OpenJFX 21 upgrade work we now use GTK3 which supports & uses UTF-8 by default.

Checked this, works fine.
