Hi Naoto, 1) The system locale determines which code page is used on the system by default on operating systems that use Unicode as their native encoding (all OSes from Windows 2000 to Windows 10) to convert text data from Unicode to code page whenever dealing with legacy non-Unicode applications. Only applications that do not use Unicode as their default character-encoding mechanism are affected by this setting; therefore, applications that are already Unicode-encoded can safely ignore the value and functionality of this setting.
2) The fundamental representation of text in Windows NT-based operating systems is UTF-16, and the WCHAR data type is a UTF-16 code unit. Java launcher, from the other side, uses CHAR as a code unit - so to use UNICODE charset with Java launcher we had to encode entire command line with UTF-8 (convert from UTF-16 to UTF-8). After that step we can state that Java launcher is Unicode-encoded and can safely ignore the value and functionality of the system locale. To let JVM know that we use UTF-8 as a default UNICODE encoding for platform string - we assign the value to sprops.sun_jnu_encoding property (mac osx does the same) instead of reading system locale code page. The main idea of the fix was to change the way of how java and javac works with so called platform string on Windows. Before the fix the platform string was read as ANSI encoded - that's why the system locale code page was very important. The sun.jnu.encoding property is responsible for storing the platform string encoding. On Windows the property could be set with the system locale but the system locale doesn't support (by design) UTF-8 or with -Dsun.jnu.encoding switch, but the switch only works with java not with javac, and the switch was useless for ANSI encoded platform string. Thanks, Vladimir. -----Original Message----- From: Naoto Sato [mailto:naoto.s...@oracle.com] Sent: Tuesday, February 23, 2016 10:47 AM To: Kumar Srinivasan <kumar.x.sriniva...@oracle.com>; Vladimir Shcherbakov <vlas...@microsoft.com>; SHEN,XUEMING <xueming.s...@oracle.com> Cc: Martin Sawicki <marc...@microsoft.com>; core-libs-dev Libs <core-libs-dev@openjdk.java.net> Subject: Re: RFR 8124977 cmdline encoding challenges on Windows Hello, Sorry if this has already been discussed, but this is my first time looking at the fix. In java_props_md.c, sprops.sun_jnu_encoding is now always "UTF-8". Is it always the case? What if the system admin switches the locale for "non-Unicode" applications in the Windows control panel?
