Summary: subprocess.call fails with unicode strings in command line
Initial Comment:
On Windows, subprocess.call() fails with an exception if either the executable or any of the arguments contain upper level characters. See below:
>>> cmd = [ u'test_\xc5_exec.bat', u'arg1', u'arg2' ]
>>> subprocess.call(cmd)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "C:\Python25\lib\subprocess.py", line 443, in call
return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait()
File "C:\Python25\lib\subprocess.py", line 593, in __init__
errread, errwrite)
File "C:\Python25\lib\subprocess.py", line 815, in _execute_child
startupinfo)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xc5' in position 5: ordinal not in range(128)
