java Source code - ISO or UTF?
Hi,
when compiling the current 2.3 tree with JDK 1.5.0, it spits out a
number of messages about character encoding. This can be remedied by
declaring the source tree as "ISO-8859-1" encoded.
Do we want to keep this or update the offending files to UTF-8 and use
this as default?
Personally, I'd prefer UTF-8.
Regards
Henning

Hi folks,
the trouble with all of the encodings is that it is very easy to corrupt
the source code with an editor since the encoding can't be detected
automatically.
Having said that UTF-8 rocks

Hi guys,
Because of the encodings I have has some problems to compare the German
Stemmer (from lucene sandbox) in Eclipse.
I needed to change the encoding in the Eclipse.
I think that it will be nice to decide for the most popular encoding
type used in IDEs (of course one of UTF-8 or ISO 8859-1).
In eclipse the default encoding is cp1252, ... don't think it is a good
ideea to use it.
Best,
Sergiu
