Character encodings: msg#00233

Subject: Character encodings

Hi,

the XMLRPC library indeed seems to have a problem with character encodings.
Giulio observed that collection names containing accents are messed up in the
jEdit plugin. I have thus added another test to
org.exist.xmlrpc.test.XmlRpcTest to check accents in collection paths. Like
all other tests, it runs through on my machine. However, the test fails on
Giulio's installation.

It thus seems that the XMLRPC library really transcodes characters to the
system default encoding at some point. I usually set my system encoding to
UTF-8 on all machines, so I couldn't see the problem.

We will have to figure out where and why the transcoding occurs.

Wolfgang
