Felix Meschberger commented on FELIX-2464:
------------------------------------------
IIRC the BOM is optional, and, in fact, having a BOM present might break
parsing in Java actually ...
But since the file's content is really plain old ASCII, we might as well
declare the file to be ASCII or ISO-8859-1....
> Web Console Events plugin XML encoding

> Key: FELIX-2464
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-2464
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Web Console
> Affects Versions: webconsole-event-plugin-1.0.2
> Reporter: Valentin Valchev
> Priority: Trivial
>
> The file
> webconsole-plugins\event\src\main\resources\OSGI-INF\metatype\metatype.xml is
> encoded in UTF without BOM. Is there any special reason for omitting the BOM?
> Without BOM, some XML parsers (typically older versions) might not correctly
> detect the character set.
