[jira] [Commented] (MRESOURCES-171) ISO8859-1 properties files get changed into UTF-8 when filtered

["Dennis Lundberg (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRESOURCES-171?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17158027#comment-17158027 ] 

Dennis Lundberg commented on MRESOURCES-171:
--------------------------------------------

We have the need at my dayjob to get this fixed. I will be working on a solution for this starting now. Currently I am reading up on what has already been written in this and other related issues.

My initial instinct is to add a configuration parameter to be able to specify the encoding for properties-files only. The default value for it can be discussed, but to keep backwards compatibility it should default to the value of the regular encoding parameter.

> Create:
> src/main/resources/test.properties
> And add a ISO8859-1 character that is not ASCII or UTF-8, do not use \uXXXX formatting.
> When adding this line:
> <resource><directory>src/main/resources</directory><filtering>true</filtering></resource>
> Expected:
> ISO8859-1 encoded file in jar.
> Actual:
> UTF-8 encoded file in jar.
> ---
> If there are any property files (which can only be ISO8859-1) they appear to be converted into UTF-8 in the jar.
