iPhone App name in Chinese

I tried to create an App with name in Chinese.
The project directory was created but when I tried to Launch it it throws some Traceback

File "/Library/Application Support/Titanium/mobilesdk/osx/1.2.0/iphone/builder.py", line 678, in <module>
main(sys.argv)
File "/Library/Application Support/Titanium/mobilesdk/osx/1.2.0/iphone/builder.py", line 225, in main
compiler.compile()
File "/Library/Application Support/Titanium/mobilesdk/osx/1.2.0/iphone/compiler.py", line 142, in compile
recursive_cp(self.resources_dir,self.temp_build_dir)
File "/Library/Application Support/Titanium/mobilesdk/osx/1.2.0/iphone/compiler.py", line 119, in recursive_cp
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 70-71: ordinal not in range(128)

  • I can change CFBundleDisplayName in Info.plist.template, and it will show the app as having a name in Chinese.

    This work around only worked in Titanium SDK 1.2.0. When I tried to use Titanium SDK 1.3.0 or 1.3.2, Python always say there is no codec.

    Hopefully they can solve this issue in 1.4.0.

  • Do you found a work around for SDK 1.4? Also in 1.4 it's not possible to use non ASCII characters in project title or description. :-(
