Hi All,

It's definitively the Eclipse (probably win32 only) issue! I've had the same problem (but unfortunately no exact solution). If one switches the encoding of EXISTING file, let's say, from 1251 to UTF8, some characters becomes converted in very strange way. I.e. German umlaut becomes expanded into 4 monkey characters and stay in this state after switching back. This should affect the resource files as well.

Regards,
paul

   Hi, I just want to say thanks for the help I solve it. You gave me the
direction to think.
I used native2ascii.exe convertor and it worked. But i still don't see why
without it it do not work as i have set through
eclipse utf-8.

Anyway its ok now. Best regards.
It is probably the old encoding, in the file still active, even if you
switch the encoding to utf8 for new files, i do not know how eclipse
behaves with old files, you should be save encodingwise in a new file
you start but probably not in an old one loaded. In older eclipse
versions there was a change encoding on the fly function, I do not know
where it has moved to.

Anyway I am glad it works now. Encoding can become hell once you have to
move out of the utf8 domain.
