strings.xml special characters in multilingual


Hey, I've developed an application with french and english translation. A guy sent me the strings.xml in polish language and in UTF-8 format (cause there are many characters i can't read). I can open it with notepad with no problem, but Eclipse replace all the special characters by another one (a sort of square) an idea ?


Solution

  • You can specify the encoding on a per file basis in Eclipse by selecting the properties of the file. Specify the correct file encoding from the dropbox. (in your case UTF-8)

    you can also specify a default encoding in the eclipse preferences (content types).
