[R-sig-Geo] readOGR does not read file names with accent

[Roger Bivand]

... and could you try sf::st_read(), as it uses enc2utf8() internally? If that works, the same may be used in rgdal.

Patrick: Is there also a space in the file path? What is the locale, I guess CP1252?

I am meeting trouble when reading a shapefile with rgdal:readOGR when the file name includes an accent. For instance, readOGR("./track génét/gélinotte/2017/Trémontagne","trace_chaux_du_dombief.shp") is well read BUT readOGR("./track génét/gélinotte/2017/Trémontagne","tracé_chaux_du_dombief.shp") gives Error in ogrInfo(dsn = dsn, layer = layer, encoding = encoding, use_iconv = use_iconv, : Cannot open layer In both cases accents in the path are well accepted. The difference just come from accent in the filename. Any idea about a workaround (except trivial: manually changing accents to non accent ;-): I have tens of files to read)?
