Joerg Schaible commented on IO-341:
-----------------------------------
Sorry, but no, this is not how it works. A patch may not include arbitrary
other stuff, I cannot see, how this charset in the patch stuff is related here.
Additionally I don't understand your constant. You introduce a constant named
'CHAR' that contains the byte sequence in UTF-16BE (native Java
representation). The name of the constant does not reflect its purpose and I
cannot see how it is useful especially for readers. If a file contains a BOM,
it can be any of those byte sequences that are handled by the ByteOrderMark
class.
