How to change default encoding in DataBindings.cpx

Hello,
How to change default encoding in DataBindings.cpx,
on windows-1251 for instance?

I've filed Bug# 3147045 for this. Our DataBinding.cpx file and UIModel XML files seem to be getting hardcoded to use the ISO-8859-1 encoding. Our ADF Business Components XML files correctly pickup the IDE encoding.

Changing Apple Mail default encoding to unicode

Is it possible to change the mail default encoding to Unicode (UTF-8)?
thanks

after sending my mails, they become unreadable symbols.
What does that mean? Are the recipients unable to read them? Or are you talking about how they look on your machine, for example in the Sent folder of Mail app?
Normally Hebrew would always be sent in Unicode.
But it certainly cannot hurt anything to test adding a unicode dingbat to a test message and see whether it makes a difference for your problem.

Error trying to Change the default encoding for JVM

I tried to change the default encoding for my JVM on a SUN but when i use the java -Dfile.encoding = ISO8859_1 command, i obtain the following error:
Error occurred during initialization of VM
java.lang.Error: java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException:
Is there something wrong with my command or something that i have to take into account in order to try to change this property?
I am using the j2sdk1.4.1_02 and now i have ISO646-US an i need to use ISO8859_1 on a Sun Solaris Box
Thanks in Advance.

try Dfile.encoding=ISO-8859-1

Soap adapter default encoding

Hi there,
we have a XI <-> webservice scenario, where the XML messages are sent in a string (the wsdl is wrapped, literal) with digital signing.
As of now, we have a problem in the digital signing, since the webservice won't validate the signature. We made some tests and this is what I've concluded.
From what I've observed, there are three ways of sending XML file content in a string (let me know if there are more). They are:
1. putting the xml content between "<![CDATA[" and "]]>";
2. replacing '<', '>' and '"' with "<", ">" and """;
3. replacing '<' and '>' with "<" and ">".
2 and 3 appear to be different encodings.
We tried to send three messages to a test webservice, each with a different way of defining the string, using receiver soap adapter. This test webservice was located in a local machine and we ran a sniffer on it. The three incoming messages were logged by the sniffer, but the upseting news were that the three of them had the same encoding in the input string, which was the third one above ("<" and ">", which by the way is the default by UTF-8).
This only occurs when using SOAP adapter. I tested File adapter and it sent the file exactly how delivered by the sender service (meaning, with the different encodes or with CDATA). We even thought about using module processor for replacing the characters in the message, but since any custom module processor comes before the main adapter module processor, it won't have any effect on the final message.
Using XMLSpy, I sent some test messages to our digital signer (which is also a webservice) with the three ways and it returned a different output when using "<" encoding in the input. Then, I sent this signed message to the webservice and it validated the signature!
We are suspecting that the webserver (which is IBM's WebSphere) always converts the input string to "<", and when they calculate the message hash code, it's different from what we sent (since we always sign a "<" encoded message).
My question is: is there any way of changing the default encode that the soap adapter module processor uses? Or at least of making it not changing the encode of the payload? If it were possible, we would send the message to the signer webservice with "<" encoding and the problem would be solved.
Thanks in advance,
Henrique.

Morten,
actually, we've found out that < = < , in both UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 encodings. It makes no difference if you use one or the other.
The point which was troublesome for us were the special characters (like á,â,à,ã,é, etc) which have different encoding for UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1. Since we had identified that the service we were accessing wasn't able to identify these characters properly, we just removed them from the string fields and that worked out for us.
Hope it helps you out.
Regards,
Henrique.

Problems with Default Encoding in Mail

I have been trying to change my default encoding settings in Apple Mail to Unicode-8. It has become necessary because some of the outlook clients that my colleagues use see my messages with control-characters/question marks. I know that this problem has been visited before and from the past posts I understand that closing the Mail and typing the following in the Terminal will do the trick:
defaults write com.apple.mail NSPreferredMailCharset "UTF-8"
I tried that several times and for some reason when I try to compose a new message, the encoding is set to "Automatic".
I would appreciate ANY help in this regard. I have been trying to get more information on this but my search has not yet been fruitful.
Thank you very much.

I do have the same problem as Steathford do, I tried
to add a dingbat without success (scissor), I still
have same "chinese signs everywhere",
I've never seen a case where the dingbat did not work. Could you send me an example? You need to go to your Sent folder, choose a message where you did this, and do Message > Send Again, and replace the original addressee with my email (tom at bluesky dot org).
When adding a dingbat, you must use the Character Palette as shown here, and not just change your font.

Change default coding (Unicode) to other languages (T. Chinese-Big5)

Is there any way to change the default coding in Mac? I have difficulty to open the MS Word doc. which is coded by Big5 instead of Unicode.
Pls advise. Thx.

You can't change the encoding of the OS, but various apps let you decide what encoding to open a document, like TextEdit. For Chinese Windows to Mac issues, see this page and try the Chinese-mac mailing list as well:

Setting default encoding to Cp1256 in jdev 9.0.5.2

Dears,
I want to set the default encoding of my project to Cp1256, I don't c any value with this and when I use windows-1256 it sometimes compiles but gives errors on runtime, and sometimes gives error that this encoding is not in any included library, I really begin having starnge behaviour on jdeveloper, till I change it and restart jdeveloper.
This encoding Cp1256 was in jdeveloper 9.0.3.4 and I need it on jdeveloper 9.0.5.2 because I'm migrating to 10g, but using default encoding is causing me losts of problem.
I'm running it on windows XP professional edition.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

I solved the problem, after reading:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/intl/encoding.doc.html
I created a new library in jdeveloper 9.0.5.2 named "extended-encoding-set" and added the following two jars to it:
JDEV_HOME\jdk\jre\lib\rt.jar
JDEV_HOME\jdk\jre\lib\charsets.jar
and added this directory to my project.
Thanks

Default Encoding for Mail

Mail on ipod touch seems to show all mails in ISO8859 or so.
The problem is I sometimes have to read mails in Chinese/Japanese encoded in EUC-CN/EUC-JP etc.
Is it possible to change the default encoding for Mail?

same problem with me. Sometime I can read Chinese/Japanese mails. Sometime the mails are unreadable. Why is Mail on mac be able to read all mails but mail on iTouch have encoding problems? I thought iTouch could be a better protable device system than windows CE in terms of international.

Default encoding

Does Java pick up a default encoding from the OS?
I'm having a problem copying data from OpenVMS to Linux (GenToo) via JDBC.
Works fine OpenVMS to Windows, but same app gets an SQLException complaining about converting UTF-8 characters when it runs on the Linux box.
Any ideas? Need more detail?

Is this the file.encoding property?Yes-ish. file.encoding is supposed (according to some documentation I saw somewhere when investigating similar problems) to be read-only. In some Sun VMs changing it affects the default encoding: in others it doesn't. The approved way of changing it is to use locales, but I couldn't find any decent documentation on this.
Does jdbc use this as well?<Shrug>.

Suggestion: make UTF8 as default encoding

JDeveloper still uses "System default" encoding for editor and compiler, not UTF8. Other tools, like IDEA uses UTF8 more than 5 years.
JDeveloper can be ajusted to use UTF8, but it is needed to make this in 3 places at last. If a new developer will not find this places, it will not use JDeveloper - currently, Unicode is a standatd. Example of big problems Character encoding again - nobody can help.
I suggest to make UTF8 as default in 11i.
Reasons:
1) user-friendly for new developers
2) no difference to americans
2) If Oracle developers will use UTF8 by default, they have a chance to find a plenty of little bugs. Mostly, this bugs are in a wizards wich uses XML,XSL,WebServices - just look in the message window.

Maybe it would be a good idea to really follow the right "system setting". On Linux, this is pretty clear, I guess it's just the current locale. On Windows, I don't think there is such thing. But everything is Unicode anyway in Windows, so I'd say UTF-8 would be quite a good thing.
Anyway, if everyone used utf-8 instead of the 8-bit national charsets, a great range of encoding problems wouldn't even exist. But sadly, I see many colleagues sticking with ISO-8859-1 because 'it just works, why change?'. Jdeveloper should try to encourage to use UTF-8 while still allowing all those sixties fans to use latin1 ;-)

What is the default encoding file format for oracle database.

Hello,
I wanted to create all files in ANSI format irrespective of database characterset. is there any way to confirm?
please help me out.

Hello,
AS per my knowledge, UTL_FILE expects that files opened by UTL_FILE.FOPEN in text mode are encoded in the database character set And files opened by UTL_FILE.FOPEN_NCHAR in text mode are encoded in the UTF8 character set. However there is not any parameter to set default encoding format for file. It works as mentioned above.
Encoding mode is depend on database character set. If you want to change it while reading/writing file then you can use utl_encode.text_encode/ utl_encode.text_decode/ UTL_RAW.CONVERT function.
When data encoded in one character set is read and Globalization Support is told (such as by means of NLS_LANG) that it is encoded in another character set, the result is indeterminate. If NLS_LANG is set, it should therefore be the same as the database character set..
I wanted to create file using UTL_FILE. and whatever files gets create that should be in ANSI format.
Database version : 11.2.0.1

Default encoding used for XML creation

Hi Experts
I'm using the SAP XML library to create XML documents e.g. to exchange generic data between different SAP systems as well as between SAP and None-SAP systems.
Everything works fine but one important question came up several times. Which encoding is used by default if a DOM is created but no specific encoding is set? Can this default encoding be changed e.g. in some system settings?
If the XML document created in my coding contains unreadable characters or parsing is not possible the encoding to be used can be set by the administrator in own customizing tables. At the moment I'm trying to find under what circumstances the default can be used and when a particular characters set / byte order has to be defined. Furthermore instead of "try and error" I'd like to find (and describe) the attributes based on which the correct character set to be used can be determined.
Thank you in advance for any hints!
Best regards,
Matthias

Unicode defines several character sets and that java uses one of those that has been specified as the encoding in the code itself.. Several of these supported are 16 bit character sets like Chinese character sets and so forth. The default encoding however for a java application is ISO-8859-1 which is an 8-bit encoding.
The classes java.io.InputStreamReader, java.io.OutputStreamWriter, and java.lang.String can convert between Unicode and a number of other character encodings. However this conversion has to be performed explicitly in the code. so java by default doesnt support 16 bit characters unless specified in the code or in certain cases respective MIME headers are used properly.
