project encoding properties [message #557288]

Hi

I encounter a problem with project settings with Eclipse 3.5.2 and PHP Development Tools (PDT) SDK Feature 2.1.1.v20090707-1108-51584QACJCRCUeNRkNYbOJecWK9O :

I have old projects iso-8859-1 encoded. When I set the project's properties to that it works for the current session. But each time I close and re-open the project encoding is setted back to default encoding UTF-8.

Thanks a lot for your help.

I can't believe such a problem still exists one year later and have no answer.
Each time I open a project I have to reset again and again resource text encoding to iso-8859-1. Sometimes I forget and get bad transcoded characters in all files I edited.
I missed something or Eclipse developpers are great jokers.

Related bug report:
Bug 334362 Properties dialog: properties for closed project are sometimes wrong
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=334362

I couldn't find proper report though.
The bug of *platform* still exist on 3.6.2 unfortunately, but it doesn't occur on 3.7.0M5.

I thought the patch was here:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=202384

But it seems so complicated to apply a patch...

Thanks for the information Very Happy

Amazing it had been there since 2007...
I confirmed the patch works on 3.6.2 well. (as for this issue)
It's not so complicated but needs some small editing. ...it's hard to explain it...

Easier done than said.

Thanks a lot Toshiro for your reply. I see 2 files at your link:
org.eclipse.core.resources.source_3.6.1.R36x_v20110131-1630. jar 673.8 KB
org.eclipse.core.resources_3.6.1.R36x_v20110131-1630.jar 753.9 KB

Should I just replace theese files on my eclipse 3.5 install or do I need to upgrade to 3.6 ?

They are for 3.6.2 only.
Which version are you using?
3.5.2 have
org.eclipse.core.resources.source_3.5.2.R35x_v20091203-1235. jar
org.eclipse.core.resources_3.5.2.R35x_v20091203-1235.jar
Could you tell me real file names?

I upgraded to 3.6
I see org.eclipse.core.resources_3.6.1.R36x_v20110131-1630 but no any org.eclipse.core.resources.source file.

No need to mind it. org.eclipse.core.resources.source is a Java source code bundle. It is included in Eclipse SDK for developing eclipse plugins. Eclipse for PHP Developers(eclipse-php-helios) doesn't have it since it is unnecessary for pdt.

Well. I have the org.eclipse.core.resources_3.6.1.R36x_v20110131-1630 in my plugins now but text encoding still resets to utf-8 when I close project and restart Eclipse. Rolling Eyes

Hmm, I cannot reproduce your problem.
You can examine 3.7M5
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/index-developer.php
or 3.7M6 minimum Platform Runtime

Yes! It works with 3.7M5 ! My old projects in iso-8859-1 stay well encoded after closing and re-opening them. (Properties still display utf-8 when the projects are closed but it's not a problem)
Thanks and re-thanks to Toshihiro Smile
