http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17826 RuntimeInstance.setDefaultProperties() codepage problem Summary: RuntimeInstance.setDefaultProperties() codepage problem Product: Velocity Version: 1.3.1-rc2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Source AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] There is a bug in the RuntimeInstance setDefaultProperties method that prevents Velocity 1.3.1 from running on an IBM mainframe. The code is currently written: InputStream inputStream = classLoader .getResourceAsStream( DEFAULT_RUNTIME_PROPERTIES ); configuration.load( inputStream ); Which loads the default runtime properties into an ExtendedProperties object. This fails on an OS/390 which has a default codepage of Cp1047 (ebcdic), since: 1) the properties resource is packaged in the Jar in codepage ISO8859_1. 2) The ExtendedProperties class attempts to load it using the default codepage (Cp1047). 3) Because of the codepage mismatch, the resulting ExtendedProperties object is empty and you get the error: "It appears that no class was specified as the ResourceManager. Please ensure that all configuration information is correct." Note that java.util.Properties.load(InputStream) ALWAYS loads using "8859_1", since properties files are assumed to be in ASCII. A workaround to this bug is to load the default properties manually, add your changes and pass them all to the VelocityEngine.init(Properties) method. The fix is to change the line to: configuration.load( inputStream, "8859_1" ); Which is consistent with java.util.Properties.load(). Also, any other uses of the ExtendedProperties.load() should be changed as well. In fact, ExtendedProperties.load() should probably default to "8859_1", IMO. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
