[jira] Commented: (MNG-2025) POM is still not read using the right
encoding
[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2025?page=comments#action_57358 ]
Stefan Hübner commented on MNG-2025:
------------------------------------
This issue is a clone of MNG-1603. Sorry, The Fix Version is not correct due to cloning (I misunderstood this cloning feature slightly.)
My experiences working with encodings is, that Maven actually DOES NOT read model files using the right encoding. It might be true, that the declared encoding is read and attached to the model. But certain field like *description* are read using the default system character set, which isn't the same as the POM's encoding in all cases.
I'll provide test cases both for maven-model and maven-project to demonstrate the problem.
Again, sorry for the misleading issue data by cloning MNG-1603.
Regards,
Stefan
