in reply to En/Decode a unicode path

Please provide a SSCCE because there are too many ways to (mis)understand your question.

In general any Perl function should be able to deal decoded strings (i.e. converted to the internal unicode character format, hence the string has the so called UTF8 flag activated).

Some (like JSON::decode_json) don't and expect encoded octet strings, so you need to check the documentation.

edit

see Encode for details

    for example 
    use Storable;
store { }, "Some/Unicode/PathFileName.sto"; # fail
retrieve "Some/Unicode/PathFileName.sto"; # also fail

    [download]
    Because I can't make Storable use Win32::Unicode.

    Encode, Win32::Unicode::* only works when I am directly access the dir/file, but won't work when other modules not using it.
