Accents in file name using Java on Solaris
- by Stef
I have a problem where I can't write files with accents in the file name on Solaris.
Given following code
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Charset = "+ Charset.defaultCharset().toString());
System.out.println("testéörtkuoë");
FileWriter fw = null;
try {
fw = new FileWriter("testéörtkuoë");
fw.write("testéörtkuoëéörtkuoë");
fw.close();
I get following output
Charset = ISO-8859-1
test??rtkuo?
and I get a file called "test??rtkuo?"
Based on info I found on StackOverflow, I tried to call the Java app by adding "-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8" at startup.
This returns following output
Charset = UTF-8
testéörtkuoë
But the filename is still "test??rtkuo?"
Any help is much appreciated.
