Ok... I'm really close to solving this:
If I modify the build.xml file as follows:
207c207
< <wocompile srcdir="Sources" destdir="bin">
---
> <wocompile srcdir="Sources" destdir="bin" encoding="UTF8">
then my .java files are compiled as UTF8 files and now I see the
characters correctly in JD-GUI. And the application built from the
command line displays the characters correctly when I run it.
Hmmm.... this STILL DOES NOT explain why my other small wonder app
with a single Main.wo component does not require me to do this. I
think the javac compiler is determining the encoding automatically and
it does it wrong (maybe?). Nahh... that doesn't seem to make sense.
The string is the same "José" in the .java file in both projects.
The puzzle continues. At least I have a workaround.
I do know now that the problem had nothing to do with embedding
frameworks in the application. The problem is that when building from
the command line the javac compiler is compiling the .java file as
MacRoman. But why???? :-)

.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?
