Hi evreybody
I face a problem with Eclipse since I use utf-8 encoding for the default workbench: I set old projects properties to iso-8859-1 and it works fine until next session.
When I restart the project the next day encoding switched back to utf-8 again while the .settings/core.eclipse.resources.prefs shows:
#Thu Feb 03 15:01:21 CET 2011
eclipse.preferences.version=1
encoding/<project>=ISO-8859-1


I have to re-define text encoding each time I re-open the project and if I forget it I get bad transcoded caracters when I save a file. Realy boring Evil or Very Mad

I have not heard of this problem before, but to check the obvious ... is
this a "shared" project? could a team mate be changing it back?
I assume you have not other software/plugins installed that might be
changing it back?

Also, I have seen some recent bugs about encoding preferences not
"taking", see bug 202384,
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=202384
but think that had to do with closing/reopening a project.

You might search the platform's bugs and see if any matches, and if not,
perhaps open one, if you can provide reproducible steps, on a clean
install of just Eclipse code.

I face the same problem since eclipse 3.1 until now with Eclipse 3.5.2 and PHP Development Tools (PDT) SDK Feature 2.1.1.v20090707-1108-51584QACJCRCUeNRkNYbOJecWK9O :

Posted many times about that subject. No solutions found.

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 get mad with that. Twisted Evil
