File Encoding handling in Eclipse 3.5
- by Cédric Girard
Hi,
I use Eclipse 3.5 on Windows, with PDT and Subclipse plugins, with both legacy projects using ISO-8859-1 encoding (latin-1), and newers ones wich use UTF-8. I configured my workspace to use UTF-8, and I configured old projects to use latin-1. But every time I open an old project, it use UTF-8.
With a workspace using latin-1 by default, I have the same problem with utf-8 projects edited as iso-8859-1.
My encoding choice is written in the file .settings/org.eclipse.core.resources.prefs but seems to be never read.
The only solution for now is to have a latin1 workspace, and an utf8 one. Any better idea?
Regards,
Cédric
