Intel MPI 2019 is unable to pass non-English arguments

[hsu__jim]

Hi :

Our program uses "project path" as the arguments.

mpiexec.exe -n 2 C:\test\myProgram.exe "D:\MyProjectPath"

On a Windows of Chinese edition:

For Intel MPI 2018, if the project path contains Chinese characters, the project path is correctly passed to the program.

But for Intel MPI 2019, if the project path contains Chinese characters, the project path is passed to the program as the garbled text.

Any suggestions? Thank you.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for reporting this error to us.!

We have also found similar behavior in IMPI 2019 when passing Chinese characters as arguments.

We have escalated this query to the concerned team.

Thanks
