Since I am using Windows, I edited chainsaw.bat file as: java -Dorg.apache.commons.logging.Log=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -classpath jakarta-oro-2.0.6.jar;jmdns.jar;log4j-1.3alpha-7.jar;log4j-chainsaw-2.0alpha-1.jar;log4j-optional-1.3alpha-7.jar;log4j-oro-1.3alpha-7.jar;log4j-smtp-1.3alpha-7.jar;log4j-xml-1.3alpha-7.jar;log4j-zeroconf.jar;xstream-1.1.2.jar org.apache.log4j.chainsaw.LogUI
But the trick doesn't work.

I filed a bug (http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43736) with more discussion. Until that gets fixed, a workaround would be to change the default encoding for the JVM when loading Chainsaw. How to do that appears to implementation specific. If you are running on Linux or similar, you could set LC_CTYPE=UTF-8 before launching Chainsaw, on Windows adding a -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 to the line launching Chainsaw might do the trick. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
