Bindy/FixedLength/encoding/optional fields
Hi all,
I see strange behaviour in camel-bindy:
1) When I unmarshal a fixed-length file I get errors when the file is encoded in e.g. UTF-8. It seems that characters that need multiple bytes to encode confuse the parser/scanner. There was a JIRA with regard to bindy-csv but nothing bindy-fixed.
2) The length parameter in the fixedlength-annotation is required (otherwise it is 0). Wouldn´t it be nice if this were computed. It would be great to have optional fixed-length fields (like in old host files). Or do I have to go the smooks-route?
Regards, Thomas.

BeanIO looks great, I´ll give it a try. So many libraries - so little time. Thank you Claus.
