Description strzinek 2005-03-02 09:21:51 UTC

when building under 4.0+ release, the default ant
build script doesn't take into account encoding
explicitly set on individual java source files.

Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2005-03-09 23:37:44 UTC

There is no general support yet for file encoding. Use \uXXXX escapes in the
meantime, or use only the encoding set on your machine as the platform default
encoding. (On modern versions of Linux this is easy because it should be UTF-8
and that can encode anything, but other OSs may not make it so simple.)
