are properties files not really read in by the default system encoding?
So if you have youre system encoding on iso8859-2 then it should read
properties files like that.
No, they are not. My system encoding is iso8859-2 but property files are
read as they were in iso8859-1 substituting ? for every "unknown"
character.

So the only correct way is escaping. Not unusable, but cumbersome. But
definitely not a showstopper.
in eclipse you can set the default encoding for youre properties files
if you want (see General -> Content Types)
Thank you. I overlooked this option. Though I knew I can set the
encoding of specific property file.

Tried it. But I had to set the encoding of property files to iso8859-2
manually. When I forgot it, eclipse threw away all national charactar
(a got ? instead). And using this approach I had two property files
for each class (one unenscaped and one escaped).
Maybe there can be a better solution. I just don't get it, why are the
properties in latin1 while there's unicode support in java everywhere.
Nevertheless, while this is an issue, it's certainly not a big one.
It's a matter of which workaround to use :)

Build your properties files using you local (latin 2) encoding so
that you don't need to put any escaped characters in. Then, as part
of the build pocess run native2ascii on all of the properties files
to get all the extended characters correctly escaped.

Hi,
there's a big discussion today about customizing validator
messages/their resource keys. Would it be possible in future to
decouple the messages from property files? I think resource bundle
is a good thing, when you are using latin 1. For all other encoding
is a pain, because you have to escape each foreign character. In my
country, we are using latin 2 and a lot of characters not found in
latin1. So using property files for this feels really cumbersome.
Would id be possible to have an interface with function similiar to
this?
interface IMessageProvider
{
String getString(Component component, String path, Locale locale);
}
With a reasonable default (caching) implementation that would use
property files?
And I one could use different implementation (with xml or whatever)
