Hi all,

what about the encoding one step down the installation process during ant copy operations, see: http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/copy.html#encoding

Any thoughts about this?

But I also think we can limit the filtration process to just those files it
is required for. Which I think are primarily just dspace/config/*.* and
web.xml

I've noticed a stream of warning messages from Maven during builds, of
the form:

 [WARNING] Using platform encoding (MacRoman actually) to copy
filtered resources, i.e. build is platform dependent!

What this really means, near as I've been able to determine, is that
text files in the src/main/resources subdirectory of a project get
translated from Maven's presumed UTF-8 native format to its idea of
the platform default character set.  On MacOS 10.5, that's apparently
MacRoman, although the platform supports Unicode just as well.

I find it alarming because many of the files it's translating are XML
(XSL, XMAP) files whose headers promise they are in UTF-8.
Fortunately we still aren't really exploring outside of the familiar
old ASCII character set in these files so it isn't actually an issue,
yet, but a bug is waiting to happen.

Adding this properties element to the top-level POM fixes it - the
files are written in UTF-8:

  <properties>
    <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
  </properties>

I'll append a list of the files that seem to be affected.  Note that
all but Messages.properties are XML in UTF-8.  The Messages file is
tricky, though, since we might actually want it translated to the
platform native character set -- but that could be arranged within its
POM.

Has anyone got experiences, ideas about this?

thanks,
