Can you check to see if this is still a problem with the CMake 2.8.4-rc1 release? If so, can you copy/paste the exact path name that it has a problem with, and attached a generated *.sln / *.vcxproj file that is "corrupt"?

Thanks.

Checked in v2.8.4 Release:

This is still a problem

Instead of the German Umlaut (äöü) in a path there is a crypted character, so compiling the solution is not possible

Solution:

You must change XML-encoding from utf-8 to iso-8859-1, then this bug is fixed;

cmLocalVisualStudio10Generator.cxx (line: 55)
          XML_SetEncoding(static_cast<XML_Parser>(this->Parser), "utf-8")
          XML_SetEncoding(static_cast<XML_Parser>(this->Parser), "iso-8859-1");

cmVisualStudio10TargetGenerator.cxx (line: 170, 501)
         (...)

Can you compile CMake yourself and turn on the switch
CMAKE_ENCODING_UTF8:BOOL=ON
to see if this problem is fixed?

This was fixed in CMake 3.0.
