Description:
------------
Extracted a zip file contains a folder named with Chinese characters, the files in the folder is no longer in it.

e.g.
I have 2 zips, the one named en.zip contains a folder named English

en.zip
     |- English
           |- en.txt


the other named zh.zip contains a folder named 中文

zh.zip
     |- 中文
         |- zh.txt


Then I use ZipArchive to extract them,



Test script:
---------------
<?php
$zip = new ZipArchive;

$zip->open('en.zip');
$zip->extractTo('.');
$zip->close();

$zip->open('zh.zip');
$zip->extractTo('.');
$zip->close();

Expected result:
----------------
There are 2 folders, 'English' and '中文', each folder contains a txt file.

Actual result:
--------------
The 'English' folder contains a txt file named en.txt; the '中文' folder is empty and zh.txt is out of it.

Like Bug #53948 (ZIP archive UTF-8 filenames problem) the problem seems to be the zip-implementation which (seems to) expects CP437 as valid encoding for file-/foldernames.

using 

$newFileOrFoldername = iconv('UTF-8', 'CP437//IGNORE//TRANSLIT', $oldFileOrFoldername);

as a Workaround, you have to look that iconv() supports CP437.
After this Workaround it works* with Win7(64bit) and Ubuntu 10.4(64bit) but the Archivemanager under Ubuntu 10.4(32bit) still shows wrong characters.

*) With the converted Filename where characters not-matching CP437 will be transliterated or even ignored - so it may be not a Workaround for Chinese characters ...

the library does nothing but to take the names you give as inputs.

The problem is also visible when a zip archive contains entries namend using UTF-8 
or other random encoding. These names are used to the filesystem APIs, which 
expect string endonded using the active run time CP.

At some point the library will support UTF-8 (as zip specs allow that). But it is 
not yet implemented.

I also confirm this problem.

Workaround: Helps converting to your DOS encoding.

I also confirm this bug in the Greek language. The problem is that it has severe implications in popular opensource applications like moodle. 

Please read related bug: http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-24928

I think this is not ZipArchive problem, it is problem zip archive format which not stored source code page, but extracting software interprets the code page in different ways depending on the platform (Windows uses DOS encoding ex. Cyrillic for 866, Linux uses UTF-8)

Some news about this bug?
Also affect extracting zip files with non-english filename encode.

Confirming that extracting archive with UTF8 filenames doesn't work

Please try using master at https://github.com/pierrejoye/php_zip

UTF-8 support for the archive name entries have been added.

hi  pajoye, I've tried your code from https://github.com/pierrejoye/php_zip
then I run
phpize
./configure
make
make install
and then I got a new zip.so

but the problem still exists;

$zip->addFile('/some/path/file','中文名');
not works. and 

$zip->addFile('/some/path/file',iconv("UTF-8","CP437//IGNORE//TRANSLIT",'中文名'));
not works either.

my php version is 5.5.9 and os is ubuntu14.04
