Hi all,
I am in the need of writing a shapefile containing Arabic characters.
I followed the directions found in the guide:
http://docs.geotools.org/stable/userguide/library/data/shape.html
and set the "charset" parameter in the map that is used to create the
datastore.

Checking in memory and printing to console the featurecollection's
attributes shows me that everything works fine right until before doing the
writing transaction.

Then, if I try to open the file with a GIS or libreoffice or even read it
with geotools, the content is completely wrong, since the attributes names
where also Arabic and not only the names are scrambled but also the values
where not filled in (some of which just numbers). So I get empty bad
looking stuff.

Any idea on what I might be still missing?
Thanks for any help,
Cheers,
Andrea
