Character set from CPG files
----------------------------

                 Key: GEOT-2972
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-2972
             Project: GeoTools
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: data shapefile
    Affects Versions: 2.6.2
         Environment: 
http://webhelp.esri.com/arcgisdesktop/9.3/index.cfm?id=2729&pid=2727&topicname=Shapefile_file_extensions
            Reporter: Jody Garnett
            Assignee: Andrea Aime
            Priority: Minor


In reviewing shapefile "lyr" files I came across mention of a "cpg" sidecar 
file tht is used to specify the code page (ie the character set to use). 
Currently we handle this as a datastore connection prameter - it would be nice 
to take the value from a sidecar file if available.

".cpg—An optional file that can be used to specify the code page for 
identifying the character set to be used"

There are many related issues about character support left in jira: GEOT-514, 
GEOT-347, GEOT-253, GEOT-1442, GEOT-984
