http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36290 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2005-08-23 10:14 ------- It need not be LATIN1 but it must be an encoding which can be used to read an arbitrary byte stream into Java chars and write it out again that the new file is a genuine copy of the original. For token replacement to work, ASCII must be a subset. UTF-8 cannot be used because some of the 256 byte values are invalid. Multi-byte encodings cannot be used because they would fail odd file lengths. I came across this problem in the Cocoon build file macro where an unknown set of XML files with eithor UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1 encodings by author's choice needs to be copied, possibly with token replacement. The platform default encoding is outside our control. Of course, an even better solution would be if the copy+filtering task looked at the <?xml encoding="..."?> to determine the correct encoding for XML files. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
