[rules-users] rules file character encoding and spring

I have a rules description like this: <drools:kbase id="bodKBase"> <drools:resources> <drools:resource type="DRL" source="classpath:be/vlaanderen/awv/dc/bod/rule/Dienstbevel.drl"/> <drools:resource type="DRL" source="classpath:be/vlaanderen/awv/dc/bod/rule/Kostenberekening.drl"/> </drools:resources> </drools:kbase> How can I specify the character encoding for this? It is working fine on linux (everything is UTF-8), but gives a problem on Windows machine where it complains about the character set. Thanks for the help. Kind regards, Joachim
