I've got a url:
http://www.mubie.com/sites/default/files/imageifarm/紫薇.jpg
now, if I try to get the file:
String url = "http://www.mubie.com/sites/default/files/imageifarm/紫薇.jpg"; //url is a string
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream((InputStream) new URL(url).getContent());
it throws the following exception:
09-23 17:10:57.812: W/System.err(2059): java.io.FileNotFoundException: http://www.mubie.com/sites/default/files/imageifarm/紫薇.jpg

how can i solve this issue? convert the chinese characters to unicode?
The url(and the file) is perfectly valid
what i've tried
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream((InputStream) new URL(URLEncoder.encode(url,
"UTF8")).getContent());
but it turns the url into something like:
http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mubie.com%2Fsites%2Fdefault%2Ffiles%2Fimageifarm%2F%E7%B4%AB%E8%96%87.jpg

As you can see, your code is failing on the Chinese characters. You should call toASCIIString()
on your URL-string:
InputStream stream = (InputStream) new URL(url).toASCIIString().getContent();
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(stream);
