-------------------------------------------
> RuntimeInstance.setDefaultProperties() codepage problem
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: VELOCITY-151
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-151
> Project: Velocity
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Engine
> Affects Versions: 1.3.1-rc2
> Environment: Operating System: other
> Platform: Other
> Reporter: Kirk Wolf
> Fix For: 1.5
>
>
> There is a bug in the RuntimeInstance setDefaultProperties method that
> prevents
> Velocity 1.3.1 from running on an IBM mainframe.
> The code is currently written:
>
> InputStream inputStream = classLoader
> .getResourceAsStream( DEFAULT_RUNTIME_PROPERTIES );
>
> configuration.load( inputStream );
>
> Which loads the default runtime properties into an ExtendedProperties
> object.
> This fails on an OS/390 which has a default codepage of Cp1047 (ebcdic),
> since:
>
> 1) the properties resource is packaged in the Jar in codepage ISO8859_1.
> 2) The ExtendedProperties class attempts to load it using the default
> codepage (Cp1047).
> 3) Because of the codepage mismatch, the resulting ExtendedProperties
> object is empty and you get the error:
> "It appears that no class was specified as the ResourceManager. Please
> ensure that all configuration information is correct."
>
> Note that java.util.Properties.load(InputStream) ALWAYS loads using
> "8859_1", since properties files are assumed to be in ASCII.
>
>
> A workaround to this bug is to load the default properties manually, add
> your changes and pass them all to the VelocityEngine.init(Properties)
> method.
>
> The fix is to change the line to:
> configuration.load( inputStream, "8859_1" );
>
> Which is consistent with java.util.Properties.load(). Also, any other uses
> of the ExtendedProperties.load() should be changed as well. In fact,
> ExtendedProperties.load() should probably default to "8859_1", IMO.
