Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-255: ------------------------------------ If the default for writing is UTF-8, then if I log a Japanese string to the Console in my Japanese environment it comes out scrambled, because the Console is in the platform default encoding. (Same with reading log files written in UTF-8, unless I tell the editor/viewer explicitly to use UTF-8. Most Japanese editors use the platform encoding by default, and often have an option to switch to another encoding.) > Multi-byte character strings are scrambled in log output > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-255 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-255 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Appenders, Core > Affects Versions: 2.0-beta6 > Reporter: Remko Popma > Assignee: Remko Popma > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 2.0-beta7 > > > When I tried to log a Japanese string the output was scrambled in both the > Console and a log file. > For example, > logger.warn("日本語テスト"); // (Japanese test) > came out as > 15:07:00.184 [main] WARN test.JapaneseTest - 譌・譛ャ隱槭ユ繧ケ繝? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
