Output proper charset name in XDoc report for mojos
---------------------------------------------------
Key: MPLUGIN-95
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPLUGIN-95
Project: Maven 2.x Plugin Tools
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: API
Affects Versions: 2.4
Reporter: Benjamin Bentmann
Priority: Minor
Attachments: registered-charset-name.patch
My original patch for MPLUGIN-76 has an unintended side effect:
{{OutputStreamWriter.getEncoding()}} does not exactly report back the encoding
supplied in the constructor. On a Sun JDK 1.6.0_04 for Windows, I observed that
{{getEncoding()}} returnes "UTF8" instead of "UTF-8" as supplied in the
constructor.
This might not be an issue as long as the XML file is only processed by
Java-based code, but
# the [XML spec|http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xml11-20060816/#charencoding]
suggests to use the string "UTF-8" to indicate that encoding
# the [IANA charset database|http://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets]
does not mention "UTF8" as a valid alias for "UTF-8"
# some non-Java programs really fail on parsing such a XML due to "unsupported
encoding"
