In order to omit the byte order mark (BOM), your stream must use an instance of UTF8Encoding other than System.Text.Encoding.UTF8 (which is configured to generate a BOM). There are two easy ways to do this: 1. Explicitly specifying a suitable encoding: Call the UTF8Encoding constructor with False for the encoderShouldEmitUTF8Identifier parameter. Pass the UTF8Encoding instance … Read more
Those are two different things, as others have mentioned. When you specify # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-, you’re telling Python the source file you’ve saved is utf-8. The default for Python 2 is ASCII (for Python 3 it’s utf-8). This just affects how the interpreter reads the characters in the file. In general, it’s probably … Read more
Try with: javac -encoding ISO-8859-1 file_name.java
My suggestion is to take a “white list” approach, meaning don’t try and filter out bad characters. Instead define what is OK. You can either reject the filename or filter it. If you want to filter it: String name = s.replaceAll(“\\W+”, “”); What this does is replaces any character that isn’t a number, letter or … Read more
Yes, you need to specify the encoding of the file you want to read. Yes, this means that you have to know the encoding of the file you want to read. No, there is no general way to guess the encoding of any given “plain text” file. The one-arguments constructors of FileReader always use the … Read more
From MSDN string value = “9quali52ty3”; // Convert the string into a byte[]. byte[] asciiBytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(value); You now have an array of the ASCII value of the bytes. I got the following: 57 113 117 97 108 105 53 50 116 121 51
The code below has the following features: Detection or attempted detection of UTF-7, UTF-8/16/32 (bom, no bom, little & big endian) Falls back to the local default codepage if no Unicode encoding was found. Detects (with high probability) unicode files with the BOM/signature missing Searches for charset=xyz and encoding=xyz inside file to help determine encoding. … Read more
Thanks to bits and pieces from various replies, I think we can stitch up an explanation. By trying to print an unicode string, u’\xe9′, Python implicitly try to encode that string using the encoding scheme currently stored in sys.stdout.encoding. Python actually picks up this setting from the environment it’s been initiated from. If it can’t … Read more
I know this has already been answered, but I just spent more time than I care to admit coming up with single-line SQL statements to accomplish this, so I’ll share them here in case anyone else needs to do the same: — Encode the string “TestData” in Base64 to get “VGVzdERhdGE=” SELECT CAST(N” AS XML).value( … Read more
Try this 1) Window > Preferences > General > Content Types, set UTF-8 as the default encoding for all content types. 2) Window > Preferences > General > Workspace, set Text file encoding to Other : UTF-8
