This is the third of the series. The encoding name convention is different between Classpath and standards. For instance, ISO-8859-1 appears in Classpath like "8859_1", I wonder why Classpath does this way, because "8859_1" even didn't appear in IANA's official names of character set (http://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets) and J2SE documentations (e.g, http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/lang/package-summary.html). While Classpath uses these names to locate decoder classes, a mapping should be done somewhere. Classpath provides a alias mechanism to use System.properties to do the mapping. But who will insert these properties? Any guys have ideas about this? Regards...
