applicationresources file encoding problem

[Serkant Karaca <s....@sys-inc.com>]

I'm using struts in JDeveloper. We have to use Turkish characters in our
application. The applicationresources file has plenty of Turkish message
strings which involves non ACSII characters. When I run the application,
I see those strings in applicationresource file are corrupted. But there
is no problem with the characters which I wrote into pure JSP pages.
What is wrong with my configuration. I also used the web.xml filter
mapping for encoding. But it didn't work. Please help...
 
Thanks.

This happens because property files read with ISO8859-1 character
encoding. Thus, you need to convert your Turkish resources file to
UTF-8.
(http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/util/Properties.html)

You can use native2ascii standard Java tool that comes with JDK. It is
in the "bin" directory of your installation. Also, ant has a task for
this.

Hope this helps..
