Will Glass-Husain updated VELOCITY-191: --------------------------------------- Bugzilla Id: (was: 21582) Fix Version: (was: 1.5) Description: [copypaste from velocity-user mailing list] Date: Mon, 14 Jul 2003 01:52:11 -0700 (PDT) From: mailmur <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: UnicodeFileResourceLoader to support Win2k Notepad UTF-8 files Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii I discovered, that files saved with Win2k Notepad UTF-8 format always generated an extra ? character at the start of ISO-8859-1 output text. This was due to lack of UTF8 BOM mark support in InputStreamReader/OutputStreamWriter classes. I then created a inputstream implementation to skip BOM mark to overcome this bug. Please, find here a source + testprogram to see it for yourself. I created UnicodeFileResourceLoader to make all this transparent. http://koti.mbnet.fi/akini/java/unicodereader/ I dont know what is the proper procedure to add this to Velocity core (if you find this useful), but here it is. Feel free to change class package. Or is this even the right list to announce such addition....
