Encoding problems [message #514944]

Hi,
I have this web project that was written on Eclipse 3.0 + tomcat 4.1. now when I try to check out this project to my new Eclipse 3.5.1+ tomcat 6, I have this wired encoding problem (I had more other problems but managed to solve them Smile

).

when debugging, I have this simple line:

String str = "Hebrew Word";

I can see the Hebrew word on the Editor just fine, but when the debugger steps over this line, the str variable holds gibberish.
I tried also Glassfish 2.1, the same problem.

does anyone has a clue what is going on here?

Thanks.

Make sure that the right encoding is specified in your launch config.

Check the 'Common' tab of your Run/Debug configuration.

It's utf-8 as well.

I forgot to mention, It's not happening only on debug but at run-time as well.

BTW, I am not sure about the older eclipse version that the project was running on, it could be version 2.X.

Is your "string" in a JSP file? If so, do you specify something like
<%@ page language="java" pageEncoding="utf-8"
contentType="text/html;charset=utf-8"%>
at the beginning?

You say the debugger has jibbrish, but is it correct if displayed on a
web page? (Not that I'd know what that means ... just curious).

No, this code is inside a simple class with .Java extension.
I am not trying to display this word, it's just for comparing strings.

P.S.
This project uses AspectJ
