The UnicodeInputStream class is used to load files with a BOM correctly. It knows the file encoding but I can't use it. If it is the case that I have to load files with a different encoding (e.g. UTF-8 and UTF-16), I won't be able to handle such a situation, because I must set the input.encoding property or pass it to the getTemplate method. Otherwise, the default encoding will be taken for all files.

It is to use so that template loaders don't need to tell an encoding so all is fully transparent. getTemplate(name, encoding) method is an old legacy method where we as a user must know the encoding beforehand. This is very very unfortunate issue, something we should not worry about in the first place. Its only FileResourceLoader class using the UnicodeInputStream class. All other loaders don't use it, this is a lack of Velocity loader implementation. If all loaders was to use it then we just would use getTemplate(name) and all is fine. FileResourceLoader does not use it as a default use, you must tell "unicode=true" in a velocity.properties configuration. Then you can forget the file encoding, ansi and utf* templates are loaded properly. http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/velocity/engine/trunk/src/java/org/apache/velocity/runtime/resource/loader/FileResourceLoader.java --- On Tue, 7/14/09, johann.we...@eventim.de <johann.we...@eventim.de> wrote: > From: johann.we...@eventim.de <johann.we...@eventim.de> > Subject: AW: getEncodingFromStream from UnicodeInputStream > To: user@velocity.apache.org > Date: Tuesday, July 14, 2009, 9:36 AM > It is in > org.apache.velocity.app.VelocityEngine.getTemplate(String > name, String encoding) > They sure do when you're using BOM in your templates.
