What encoding does your .java file have? And when it doesn't work, how was that .java file compiled?

.java files should ALWAYS be UTF-8, because that's what javac expects, however eclipse doesn't care. My gut feel is that your .java file is MacRoman and when eclipse compiles the class it works, and when javac compiles the class it doesn't.

Yep... I'm leaning towards that too.  Here's why:

There are two directories. The "build" directory and the "dist" directory. The compiled class in the "build" directory has the correct characters when I look at it with the decompiler (JD-GUI).

But when I look at the compiled class in the "dist" directory which is where it gets placed when I run ant from the command line, then the characters look wrong in JD-GUI.

So I'm gonna be looking at how the compiler gets told what encoding to use. Does anybody know?
