| Problem with IDE.openEditor(URI): cannot open external file in UTF8 [message #330944] | Mon, 18 August 2008 16:57  |  | 
| Eclipse User  |  |  |  |  | Good day, 
 I need to open an external file in editor. The following code works in
 eclipse 3.3 for files in default system encoding:
 
 IEditorPart part = IDE.openEditor(page, file.toURI(),
 "org.eclipse.jdt.debug.ui.SnippetEditor", true);
 
 I can't find any API to open that file in non-system encoding, e.g. UTF-8.
 
 It's possible to change the default workbench encoding on the workbench
 properties page; after that, the editor opens UTF-8 files correctly.
 However, I don't want to change the entire workspace settings - user
 preferences should be respected.
 
 Is there any workaround?
 
 Thanks
 /Sergey

 The second workaround does not work for me because the snippet editor
 does not return adapter for IEncodingSupport (at least, in eclpse 3.3).
 
 The first workaround.. well, I could not find which property should be
 changed. But - instead - I found the better solution for my problem:
 
 <extension point="org.eclipse.core.runtime.contentTypes">
 <content-type
 id = "xyz.my.id"
 name = "xyz"
 file-extensions="xyz"
 default-charset="UTF-8"
 ...
 />
 </extension>
 
 This works fine for me, since I want to open files with specific
 extension. So, you helped me actually :)
