Timo Rantalaiho commented on WICKET-306:
----------------------------------------
What is the impact of this bug? Am I missing something, or is it just that if
you add a UTF-8 XML file with a BOM in the project, the build will fail?
If that is the case, maybe it is an acceptable workaround to fix such files by
hand with the way that Jean-Baptiste presents, until we move to Java 6. The
build server should let us know if that happens.
> XML License Header Tests fail with Unicode BOM

> Key: WICKET-306
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-306
> Project: Wicket
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: wicket
> Reporter: Jean-Baptiste Quenot
> Fix For: 1.4-M3

> License header tests use FileReader, which is subject to a JDK bug:
> http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4508058
> Namely, if the XML file is encoded using UTF-8 *and* has a BOM (this is
> optional), license check fails.
> We might integrate Unicode Reader from
> http://koti.mbnet.fi/akini/java/unicodereader/ provided that the license is
> ASL compatible.
> A workaround is to remove the optional Unicode BOM. I do that in Vim by
> using "set nobomb" and writing the file.
