Dear Jochen,

Then why do I have to set

encoding="utf-8"

in groovyc commands in the build.xml to force it to UTF-8,

If no encoding is set, the system encoding is used and that could be for example GB2312 or Big5 or even only ASCII

while the official source distribution can omit this and the Groovy developers can still compile the source of Groovy 1.7.5 correctly?

because we work on linux and mac systems. I am using UTF8 as system default for over 10 years now.

Which settings in the system am I missing?

On Windows? sorry, cannot help here really. Windows is not know to be friendly to such changes at all.

bye Jochen
