matthiasblaesing opened a new pull request #3836:
URL: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/3836
With JDK 18 the default charset for java was changed. Before this
change, the default charset (exposed as the system property
file.encoding) was platform specific. After the change the default
charset was unified to UTF-8 on all platforms.
Code that interacts with native APIs can use the system property
native.encoding to query the platform encoding and use that. And related
to this the same is true for applications interacting with the system
console.
The primarly affected platform is windows, as both mac OS and Linux
already default to UTF-8 as file encoding.
In this PR two areas are covered:
- General execution (using "External Execution API"): The module already
allows users to specify the encoding to use. It used the default
enconding as a fallback, if none was specified. This fallback was
enhanced to query the native.encoding system property first. If it is
present, it will be used as default encoding (JDK 18+), if it is
missing, the original behavior using the default file encoding is
activated.
- Maven target execution: maven target execution is basicly an external
execution, so the same considerations apply. In contrast to the
general execution API, the encoding for maven execution can't be
overriden, so both code path (input + output) are configured to use
the native.enconfig property if present or fallback to the default
file encoding.
