Re: Is there an Apache or java standard for expressing non-English String literals

[Steve Cohen]

Would others agree with this?  Is the best editor setting for editing 
code where i18n could be an issue to set the editor to UTF-8 or is it 
better to leave it at its default local setting?  What are the pros and 
cons here?  Had I set the editor for UTF-8 would I not have had these 
issues?  Or is it best to consciously code with explicit unicode escapes 
to avoid these issues on ANYONE's editor?  Or both?

Yes, now it should be ok.
However, I would advise to change it anyway - all platform specific 
settings are Bad(tm).

Okay, found it.  I assume, though, that it is not necessary to change 
this, now that I have replaced all the non-ASCII chars with unicode 
equivalents.  Or am I still missing something?

Window -> Preferences -> Workbench -> Editors
and there is "Text file encoding", can be (platform) default or custom.

However, when you say "that depends on your file encoding", where is 
THAT defined, actually?  I looked through all the Eclipse options 
and found nothing indicating option to change encodings.  
Presumably, other editors I might use might have some other place to 
define this.
