Hi,

I know there is a language package to translate all menus, actions, etc. to
non-english, such as chinese. That is not what I want. I want to simply
display chinese in view part or editor part. How can I achieve it? Thanks a
lot!

Cheers,

Weijian

Weijian,

Java support full unicode so given that your OS has the available fonts
to display the Chinese characters that you tell Eclipse to display, this
should just work.

This was what i thought. But it seems does not work like this.

I created (not using eclipse) a chinese.txt that contains chinese charaters.
I can use notepad to open it and read its chinese. But when i used eclispe
to open it, I can not read the chinese.

When I create a text file containing chinese using eclipse, it does display
chinese. But when I try to save it, I saw a message dialog saying "save
could not be completed. some characters cannot be mapped using "Cp1252"
character encoding. "

Any idea? Thanks!

Cheers,

Weijian

How do i programmatically set the text file encoding?

Thanks.

Weijian,

You can use IFile.setCharset. Note that you can use
Window->Preferences->General->Workspace to change the default encoding
for all text files. Folders and projects also support setting a default
encoding for the contained text files (which can be done
programmatically using IContainer.setDefaultCharset).
