John do you know if this also switches a console window into utf8 for such a launcher? (And if so, also for a already open console?)
The problem will be similar to initial jep400 that some still might need to know the legacy ansi codepage for the OS, and I guess the new method won’t give us that if the manifest is changed? -- https://Bernd.eckenfels.net ________________________________ From: core-libs-dev <core-libs-dev-r...@openjdk.java.net> on behalf of Naoto Sato <naoto.s...@oracle.com> Sent: Monday, October 4, 2021 10:23:47 PM To: core-libs-dev@openjdk.java.net <core-libs-dev@openjdk.java.net> Subject: Re: Windows 10 (since Windows 10 version 1903) and Windows 11 support UTF-8 as the default codepage through an executable manifest option Hi John, Please see the JEP 400, which changes the default charset to UTF-8 across platforms: https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/400 HTH, Naoto On 10/4/21 8:47 AM, John Platts wrote: > Windows 10 (since Windows 10 version 1903) and Windows 11 support UTF-8 as > the default codepage by setting an option in the application manifest. > > To enable UTF-8 as the default codepage for JDK executables on Windows 10 > (starting with the May 2019 update) and Windows 11, the following > modifications can be made to the > src/java.base/windows/native/launcher/java.manifest file (or the > jdk/src/windows/resource/java.manifest in JDK 8): > ... > <!-- Indicate JDK is high-dpi aware and enable UTF-8 as the default > codepage on Windows 10 version 1903 and later. --> > <asmv3:application> > <asmv3:windowsSettings > xmlns:dpi1="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SMI/2005/WindowsSettings"; > > xmlns:dpi2="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SMI/2016/WindowsSettings"; > > xmlns:utf8="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SMI/2019/WindowsSettings";> > <dpi1:dpiAware>true/PM</dpi1:dpiAware> > <dpi2:dpiAwareness>PerMonitorV2, PerMonitor, system</dpi2:dpiAwareness> > <utf8:activeCodePage>UTF-8</utf8:activeCodePage> > </asmv3:windowsSettings> > </asmv3:application> > ... > > The GetACP() and GetOEMCP() API's will both return 65001 on Windows 10 > Version 1903 or later if <utf8:activeCodePage>UTF-8</utf8:activeCodePage> > element is added to the executable manifest. > > GetLocaleInfo(lcid, LOCALE_IDEFAULTANSICODEPAGE, ret+2, 14) will return > different results from GetACP() if > <utf8:activeCodePage>UTF-8</utf8:activeCodePage> is present in the executable > manifest, and java.nio.charset.Charset.defaultCharset() should return > StandardCharsets.UTF_8 on Windows platforms if GetACP() returns 65001. >
