[Insight-developers] GDCM Compiler Warning: character set encoding

[Mathieu Malaterre]

Hi Hans,

  [Just got back from vacation]

  I have been working quite a lot on this issue. Unfortunately I do
not understand how this should be handle. As far as I understand this
letter 'µ' can be encoded either as one char (value > 127 on ISO-xxx,
typically on european keyboard), or on UTF (with two bytes). What does
your locale says on your computer ?

  If we cannot find a solution, I'll use what most other toolkit are
using, replace 'µ' with ASCII only character ('Micro', 'u'...).

Any guru on character set here ?

-Mathieu
