Forgot to mention...

If instead of using build.properties file, I directly add the property like -DAPPLICATION_GUID=HELLOÀÁÂ, it works even in the CentOS box. However, I would still like to be able to do this with the properties file for obvious reasons.

Hi,

I have a custom ant task which reads certain properties from build.properties and exports applications based on that.

<target name="exportSingleApp_internal" >
<taskdef classname="com.xxx.yyy.ant.tasks.ExportApplication" name="exportApplication" classpathref="proj.lib"/> <exportApplication applicationID = "${APPLICATION_GUID}" applicationVersion="${APPLICATION_VERSION}"
                          exportLocation="${APPLICATION_EXPORT_DIR}"/>
</target>

The property APPLICATION_GUID contains some accented chars such as "ÀÁÂ".

Now, when i execute this task on a Windows box, it seems to be working fine.

But on a CentOS box, the same property is read by the task program along with some junk unicode chars. Consequently, the strings do not match which affects some of the internal logic of the ant task.

Eg: If I set the APPLICATION_GUID property to HELLOÀÁÂ
The java program of the task reads the property as HELLOÃ\u0080Ã\u0081Ã\u0082

The $LANG env var on CentOS box is set to en_US.UTF-8.

I am not sure if this is an Ant issue. Any pointers would be helpful.

Regards,
Lokesh
