When using a windows OS in french and a netbeans platform 7.4 based application in french, options exported using export button in options dialog cannot be imported back to the application. the import categories chooser is empty. I have seen that the file enabledItems.info in the exported zip is encoded as ISO 8859. In the platform source code the file is written using default locale encoding and when imported the encoding is forced to UTF8 so the localized categories can't be found. Is there any workaround to recover pre 7.4 behaviour? thanks
Created attachment 148158 [details] export selected options
Created attachment 148159 [details] same options imported
this issue appears on netbeans ide too. I have attached this export and import chooser dialog boxes. On the import chooser, there is no options containing accentuated characters.
Not sure if the encoding is the problem here. Please reopen attaching the test-export.zip file that I see in the already attached images as well as the log file. Thank you for reporting
If in test-export.zip I replace enabledItems.info encoded ISO8859 by the same file encoded UTF8 everything seem fine. I'll attach the requested files in a later post. thanks
Created attachment 148188 [details] test export import files and log This zip contains the following files: * test-export.zip: original file created with this export button from option dialog * test-export-utf8.zip: same file with enabledItems.info encoded utf8 * test-import-utf8.png: screenshot using this file * messages.log

I believe this is the root of the problem.

thanks for your fix but the latest build is not available in french and I don't think the bug will show an english release. Is ther any way to test your fix on community release version 7.4 in Frenche? thanks
Integrated into 'main-silver', will be available in build *201407230001* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress) Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main-silver/rev/63806d1acfb3 User: Theofanis Oikonomou <theofanis@netbeans.org> Log: Task #245810 - Exported options cannot be imported back on windows OS

Not sure if there is any other alternative. Marian any insight? Thank you
