How to create a directory with different language name in java?

Question

I am trying to create a directory with different language name in java, but the directory is not generated and appearing as "?????" in log.

{

        String strtobyte = "对不起拜托";
        byte[] b = strtobyte.getBytes(("Windows-1252"));
        String bytetostr = new String(b);
        tmpDir = new File(this.m_directory, bytetostr);
    }

Can someone please help me to create directory with different language names?

Use "UTF-8", instead of "Windows-1252".

Or, you can just do it like this:

public static void main(String[] args)
{
    File f = new File("/Users/foldername", "对不起拜托");
    f.mkdir();
}

After i changed "Windows-1252" in to "UTF-8" also the folder is not getting generated but i could see this "å¯¹ä¸?èµ·æ‹œæ‰˜" in log. – suresh krishna Apr 27 '20 at 04:52
@sureshkrishna The folder needs to exist first. If not, you need to create it, before creating the file. – geffchang Apr 27 '20 at 05:14
I don't need file rather i want to create a folder/directory. – suresh krishna Apr 27 '20 at 05:23
