Something like <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> which should be present on any XML file...

I don't think it can. Perhaps the best way would be to write the DRL so that its character set is not subject to misinterpretation by an encoding selected due to some locale setting. Which characters cause the problems? -W On 19/09/2012, Joachim Van der Auwera <joachim(a)progs.be&gt; wrote: > Maybe I was not clear. The XML is parsing just fine.

That much is clear, but are they part of String literals? Or identifiers? For String literals, consider using the Unicode escape (\uHHHH) or import them from Java public final statics. -W On 19/09/2012, Joachim Van der Auwera <joachim(a)progs.be&gt; wrote: > Accented characters cause problems, for example éèë > > Kind regards, > Joachim > > On 19-09-12 13:42, Wolfgang Laun wrote: >> I don't think it can. >> >> Perhaps the best way would be to write the DRL so that its character >> set is not subject to misinterpretation by an encoding selected due to >> some locale setting.
