Directories in ISO Charset not shown in Project explorer [message #1860620] Tue, 22 August 2023 04:00 Go to next message

We are running a couple of older projects in ISO8859-15 locale.
In order for eclipse to show these folders correctly, eclipse is started with a number of environment settings, leading to this locale (which is also stated in the preferences->workspace as Default - ISO-8859-19).
Starting with eclipse version 2023-06, the folders in a specific project containing german umlauts (like öäü) are not shown any more.
A test with the same project in 2023-03 shows the folders.
The settings are as follows:
export LANG=de_DE@euro
export LANGUAGE=de_DE:de:en_GB:en
export LANG=de_DE@euro
export LC_ALL=de_DE@euro
export GDM_LANG=de_DE@euro
export LC_NAME=de_DE@euro
export LC_MONETARY=de_DE@euro
export LC_MEASUREMENT=de_DE@euro
export LC_TELEPHONE=de_DE@euro
export LC_PAPER=de_DE@euro
export LC_IDENTIFICATION=de_DE@euro
export LC_TIME=de_DE@euro
export LC_NUMERIC=de_DE@euro
export LC_ADDRESS=de_DE@euro

With these settings, eclipse is started.

Steps to reproduce:
Download a clean version of eclipse java IDE version 2023-03, start a new workspace, check locale in General -> Workspace settings.
Add a new test project (General project, no Java). Add a folder named "Österreich".
Start eclipse 2023-06 with the same settings and select the same workspace. (accept conversion to newer version)
Navigate in project explorer to the test project (which is initially showing the folder) and press F5/Refresh.
The Österreich folder disappears from view.

I think it would be best to open an issue here:

https://github.com/eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.ui

Probably you could just attach a zip file of the sample project. I'm a bit doubtful that these environment variable settings affect that encoding, but who knows...
