I do not know the specifics of how your build files are organized and if you are using <ant> tasks to call other build files or you are including all the build files so that targets are available directly. With the fragment above, you need to set the java.encoding property. You can do this from the command-line: ant -Djava.encoding=UTF-8 ... Command-line property settings have the highest precedence and will override any setting in the build files. If you are using <ant> and/or <antcall>, both tasks allow you to specify property settings for the target(s) you invoke (see the documentation). > <project> > ... > <property name="java.encoding" value="ascii" /> > </project> If you know the source files are using UTF-8, then use "UTF-8" as the encoding. Note, java.encoding is not a default java system property, so something is setting the property before the <javac> task is invoked. --ewh --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@ant.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@ant.apache.org
