      Compile the attached C++ program. This program will take a hex code as an argument and create a database whose name is the character represented by the hex code.

      Start mongod with --directoryperdb and --storageEngine wiredTiger

      Run ./unprintable 07

      Creating a database whose name consists of a single ASCII control character will fail on wiredTiger when using directoryperdb. The resulting error message is:

      2015-01-06T15:57:47.849-0500 E STORAGE [conn1] WiredTiger (22) [1420577867:849716][8582:0x7f7f6cee1700], session.create: Error parsing 'source="file:/collection-2--8284435167946820371.wt"' at byte 13: Unexpected character: Invalid argument

      ninserted:0 keyUpdates:0 exception: 22: Invalid argument code:2 249ms

      Either disabling directoryperdb or using mmapv1 prevents this error from occurring.
