Description kalali 2005-11-06 12:46:50 UTC 
[ BUILD # : 051102 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.5.0_03 ]

i filed another issue againts java editor about it does not save java files in utf-8 or other unicode transforation nor it provide an option to determine the source files encoding which i think is a very needed option.
http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=68178

now i convert my file to utf-8 in eclipse ide (my default encoding is utf-8 there)
and reopen it in netbeans ide , it add some unknown character to the beginning og the file.
so the file can not be compiled .....


as i thought that it could be Eclipse problem , i reopen the file in Jdev and Jdev show the file correctly.
also it can be compiled with JAVAC outside of the IDE > it is IDE editor bug.

here is what netbeans editor add to file header

thank you

    <--- it is what netbeans add to the begining of the file when it shows
the file.

i even test a file without java doc and i get the same problem.

thank you.

You must set default encoding to UTF-8:
It is still there: Tools | Options -> Advanced Options -> Editing | Java Sources
-> Default Encoding.
