[TYPO3-dam-devel] RFC #10408: No replacement of special characters after upload in non-UTF-8-installations

[Lorenz Ulrich]

Hi folks,

this is an SVN patch request.

Type: Bugfix

Bugtracker reference: http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=10408

Branches: 1.1, trunk

Problem:
After uploads (media module and PopUp) DAM does not replace spaces or 
special characters (german imlauts) in the filename anymore. This only 
happens in non-UTF-8 installations.

In DAM 1.1.7 and below spaces are only replaced when you have 
forceCharset = utf-8 and UTF8filesystem = 1. So you don't have any 
special character handling at all if you don't have these two options 
enabled.

Solution:
The attached patch makes use of t3lib_basicFileFunctions::cleanFileName 
function. This means that DAM will have the same behaviour as TYPO3 
itself, and that is:

- If you have UTF-8 enabled (forceCharset and UTF8filesystem), spaces 
will be replaced, but UTF characters (like umlauts) will be preserved.

my file name with überraschung.png will be
my_file_name_with_überraschung.png

- If you have another charset than UTF-8, spaces *and* umlauts will be 
replaced.

my file name with überraschung.png will be
my_file_name_with_ueberraschung.png


Best regards,


Lorenz
