[jira] [Commented] (NETBEANS-6069) netbeans insist that properties
file should be encoded in ISO-8859-1, but is not correct in all cases
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-6069?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17421647#comment-17421647 ]
Benjamin Asbach commented on NETBEANS-6069:
-------------------------------------------
[~homberghp] if your project is using java 8 this behavior might be legit as per spec for java 8 properties files only support non ASCII characters when they're encoded.
??except the input/output stream is encoded in ISO 8859-1 character encoding. Characters that cannot be directly represented in this encoding can be written using Unicode escapes as defined in section 3.3 of ????The Java™ Language Specification????; only a single 'u' character is allowed in an escape sequence.??
see [https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/Properties.html]

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-6069
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: cnd - Editor
> Affects Versions: 12.5
> Reporter: Pieter van den Hombergh
> Priority: Major
>
>
> I happened to edit a bundle properties file with german UTF text inside, but NetBeans opens as ISO-8859-1.
> The use case in this case is PHP project, but I think it is no longer relevant to
> make NetBeans assume from the extension that the file is ISO-8859-1.
> NetBeans seems to silently convert, and thereby break the original UTF-8 file.
>
> Anyway, it was a surprise.
> Maybe this is adequate: 'assumption is the mother of all f**k-ups.
