Umlauts in file path not working

[Former user]

If there is an umlaut in a file path, the import does not work.

Example: "C:\Test\Äüö\Test.stl"

Error importing file: Unable to open file "C:\Test\Äüö\Test.stl"

I know this issue is really annoying, sorry for that. We have an internal design issue which is blocking a good fix for that. Most of the naming schemas used in the library are using the filenames. So when getting a mandarin-based filename the internal logic of the assimp-lib will break.

Any solutions are really appreciated. Please use the mentioned issue report for tracking.
