 But http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/intl/encoding.doc.html
 says about UnicodeLittle,
 
   Sixteen-bit Unicode Transformation Format, little-endian byte order, 
   with byte-order mark
 
 So, gnu.java.nio.charset.UnicodeLittle must be correct.

Correct, but buggy.

I submitted a bug report to GNU Classpath.

[kaffe] What UnicodeLittle should be?

2005-06-23 Thread Ito Kazumitsu 
Hi,

I have found that the famous Java Excel API
(http://www.andykhan.com/jexcelapi/) does not work with Kaffe
these days: Japanese text cannot be extracted from Excel worksheets.

This seems to be due to the difference between iconv
and gnu.java.nio.charset on the handling of UnicodeLittle.

iconv, which kaffe used before importing gnu.java.nio.charset,
treats UnicodeLittle as an alias of UCS-2LE (WITHOUT byte order mark).
But gnu.java.nio.charset.UnicodeLittle treats it as UTF-16
little endian WITH byte order mark.

I do not know which is correct, but seeing the behavior of
Java Excel API, I think iconv's implementation is correct.
