When use Chinese chars in setVariable, it has not effect

[andyddd]

I tried using your lib in a asp.net project. When I use following code, the engine isn't functioning:
engine.SetVariable("tessedit_char_whitelist", "一些中文");
It seems like the tesseract's DLL only accept UTF-8 chars, but the .NET lib can only feed Unicode chars.
I tried to add a "ReadConfigFile" function to the .NET wrapper, it works. Since the config file is UTF-8 encoded.
So I suggest to add a function like "ReadConfigFile" or to fix the SetVariable function's bug, let it read utf-8 chars correctly (which seems a little harder).

BTW: Thanks for you lib.

Thanks for the bug report, I'll have a look into this shortly.

I've fixed this in the 3.03 branch for the upcoming 1.1 release. Note I haven't added a thorough test case yet only made sure you can send a UTF8 string to tesseract and that you get back the same value when calling TryGetStringVariable.

Fixed in latest release 2.0.0, will be available on Nuget shortly.
