Emmanuel Bourg updated CONFIGURATION-175:
-----------------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 1.6)
2.x
> Support Byte Order Marks
> ------------------------
>
> Key: CONFIGURATION-175
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-175
> Project: Commons Configuration
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: Nightly Builds
> Reporter: Emmanuel Bourg
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.x
>
>
> We should support byte order marks to detect automatically unicode files and
> parse them with the appropriate encoding. Here is a description of BOMs:
> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_Order_Mark
> I suggest the following changes:
> - add a setUseByteOrderMark() method in FileConfiguration to specify if the
> BOM
> should be added when the file is saved
> - the useByteOrderMark flag is ignored if the encoding has no corresponding
> BOM
> - on loading the file, look for a BOM at the beginning of the file and set the
> useByteOrderMark flag to true and switch to the corresponding encoding. The
> flag
> is set to false by default
