What about this way 1. use UTF-8 properties file and directly put plain Unicode characters in it. 2. during your build, add a post build step to call native2ascii and convert all the properties files to have Unicode characters escaped.
the post build step should be easy to implement with ANT/Maven, even in Eclipse it should be possible to customize the project builders to add this extra step. -redstun On Thu, Apr 9, 2009 at 17:52, Cristian Peraferrer <corellia...@gmail.com>wrote: > So, is it possible to *really* develop internationalized struts web apps? > How can I add chinese or japanese, if the way to internationalize it isn't > capable to use other encoding than ASCII?
