QT & imRead() & UTF-8 [closed]

edit

Hi everyone,

I use QT to create some gui and parse file path with QFileDialog. My code is:

QString fileName = QFileDialog::getOpenFileName();

Mat imageMat = imread( fileName.toLocal8Bit().constData() );

And this works fine but when I use non-latin characters my imageMat is empty. How to get image with unicode path?

Regards.

UPD: Imread isn't working with non-ascii directories/paths. http://code.opencv.org/issues/1268
