How to get default system encoding?

How can i check what character encoding the underlying OS uses?

Note that file.encoding is not a standard parameter;
to get the encoding portably you should construct an
InputStreamReader or a FileReader and call
getEncoding().String defaultEncoding = new
InputStreamReader(
new ByteArrayInputStream(new
byte[0])).getEncoding();
But this would give you the default encoding of java which is always iso8859-1 unless set otherwise. And I would guess it could be different from the OS encoding but I may be wrong here. Need to double check.

    Hi,
    The events of BDT can be used to default some fields on creating a partner.
    For this create a function module for ISDAT. attach that event in BUS7.
    In the ISDAT funtion modulethe following code should be used.
    For example to set the nationality:
    I_BUSDEFAULT-NATIO = 'DE.
    CALL FUNCTION 'BUP_BUPA_FIELDVALUES_SET'
    EXPORTING
    i_busdefault = I_BUSDEFAULT

  • How to get UTF-8 encoding when create XML using DBMS_XMLGEN and UTL_FILE ?

    How to get UTF-8 encoding when create XML using DBMS_XMLGEN and UTL_FILE ?
    Hi,
    I do generate XML-Files by using DBMS_XMLGEN with output by UTL_FILE
    but it seems, the xml-Datafile I get on end is not really UTF-8 encoding
    ( f.ex. cannot verifying it correct in xmlspy )
    my dbms is
    NLS_CHARACTERSET          = WE8MSWIN1252
    NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET     = AL16UTF16
    NLS_RDBMS_VERSION     = 10.2.0.1.0
    I do generate it in this matter :
    declare
    xmldoc CLOB;
    ctx number ;
    utl_file.file_type;
    begin
    -- generate fom xml-view :
    ctx := DBMS_XMLGEN.newContext('select xml from xml_View');
    DBMS_XMLGEN.setRowSetTag(ctx, null);
    DBMS_XMLGEN.setRowTag(ctx, null );
    DBMS_XMLGEN.SETCONVERTSPECIALCHARS(ctx,TRUE);
    -- create xml-file:
    xmldoc := DBMS_XMLGEN.getXML(ctx);
    -- put data to host-file:
    vblob_len := DBMS_LOB.getlength(xmldoc);
    DBMS_LOB.READ (xmldoc, vblob_len, 1, vBuffer);
    bHandle := utl_file.fopen(vPATH,vFileName,'W',32767);
    UTL_FILE.put_line(bHandle, vbuffer, FALSE);
    UTL_FILE.fclose(bHandle);
    end ;
    maybe while work UTL_FILE there is a change the encoding ?
    How can this solved ?
    Thank you

    Marco,
    I tryed to work with dbms_xslprocessor.clob2file,
    that works good,
    but what is in this matter with encoding UTF-8 ?
    in my understandig, the xmltyp created should be UTF8 (16),
    but when open the xml-file in xmlSpy as UTF-8,
    it is not well ( german caracter like Ä, Ö .. ):
    my dbms is
    NLS_CHARACTERSET = WE8MSWIN1252
    NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET = AL16UTF16
    NLS_RDBMS_VERSION = 10.2.0.1.0

    thnx in advance,

    There is quite a bit of data that is stored in the System Properties. Run this little test app and it'll display all of the System Properties, what you are looking for may be contained in there:
    public class Test {

            System.getProperties().list(System.out);

  • When plugging in an iPad in Apple Configurator, it is not being read under USB Connected so I can't update it.  Any ideas on how to get the system to read the iPad?

    When plugging in an iPad in Apple Configurator, it is not being read under USB Connected so I can't update it.  The iPhoto window opens up and reads the photos on the iPad, so it is connecting to the computer.  Earlier today I wasn't having any problems.  I have shut down the iPad and the computer and started over, but that didn't help.  Any ideas on how to get the system to read the iPad so I can update the apps on it?

    Hi, is the problem just to update your apps on your iPad? Here is what you should check. Is the iTunes on your computer updated to the latest version? Does your iPad needs to be updated? Do you have enough storage on your iPad to do the update? On your device is your iCloud back up checked?
    Go to Settings - iCloud - Backup/Storage - see if its checked, and try unchecking it before connecting it to the computer.
    Please let me know if you need any further assistance.

  • How to get window system user?

    Hi,
    How to get window system user use PL/SQL(form develope6i)?

    If you don't use Oracle database then you will have to do one of two things:
    (1) Now I'm back in the office I can check D2KWUTIL. The version I have comes with Forms6.0, so it is somewhat out of date, but it has a method called WIN_API_ENVIRONMENT.Get_Windows_Username - which works for NT/95 only, although I'm sure a later version will support more recent OS.
    (2) If that's no good then you'll have to use whatever facilities your database offers: I only know Oracle.
    I also repeat my suggestion that you try the Forms forum for additional help. This is the Database forum and so is focused on serverside Oracle PL/SQL. For your needs the Developer Suite forums are better.

  • How to get default color of a selected row in a JLIst

    I have a JList that I am changing the font color for based on a certian situation so I created my own MyCellRenderer to do this. However, when I select an item in the list the row is no longer highlighted. I used the isSelected method to determine if a row was selected and then change the background color of that row. However, I would like the color to be the default color that you get when you select a row in a default JList. I can't seem to figure out how to get that color. How do I obtain what that color is? I found an example where you can get the default color for the background of a button and use that color so I would guess it is something similar to that. My code is below so I hope someone can tell me how to get that color that I want.
    Thanks...Chris
    class MyCellRenderer extends JLabel implements ListCellRenderer {
         public MyCellRenderer() {
              setOpaque(true);
         public Component getListCellRendererComponent(
             JList list,
             Object value,
             int index,
             boolean isSelected,
             boolean cellHasFocus)
             int index1 = value.toString().indexOf("-");
               String errors = value.toString().substring(index1 + 1, index1 + 6).trim();
             int numErrors = Integer.parseInt(errors);
               if (numErrors > 0)
                      setForeground(Color.red);
                      setBackground(Color.white);          
             else
                  setBackground(Color.white);
                  setForeground(Color.black);
             if(isSelected)
                  //ColorUIResource col = (ColorUIResource)UIManager.getDefaults().get("JButton.background");
                  ColorUIResource col = (ColorUIResource)UIManager.getDefaults().get("Button.background");
                  setBackground(col);
             setText(value.toString());
             return this;
    }

    Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.
    I would like the color to be the default color that you get when you select a row in a default JList. I can't seem to figure out how to get that colorlist.getSelectionBackground();

  • How to get the system date format string?

    Hello, everybody!
    I want to create a MaskFormatter with a mask for dates. So, I could suply as the constructor parameter: "##/##/####'. However, what if the year comes first in the current system date format settings, or the month is in the second place or in the first?... So, I can't just suppose that the current locale format for dates is like the one above. So, my question is: is there a way to get the SYSTEM DATE FORMAT STRING in Java?

    Thank you.

  • How to get default values on selection screen(multiple ranges)?

    i want to know how to maintain default ranges in selection screen...like 2000 to 3000 and 7000 to 8000 and 11000 to 15000
    all the above ranges must get by default how to provide those to selection screen by default...please give me idea...with example...

    Hi Suresh,
    You can either use select-options or Ranges. If you want the selection screen to be displayed with allwoing user to enter values apart for the default ones use select options else use ranges. With ranges what ever values use hard code would be set and the end user will not be able to add any more values (or range of values).
    Simply write the following code
    tables : <name of the table from which the field belongs>
    select-options <fieldname> for <tablename>-<fieldname>.
    <fieldname>-sign = 'I'.
    <fieldname>-option = 'BT'.
    <fieldname>-low = '7000'.
    <fieldname>-high = '8000'.
    append <fieldname>..
    similiarly add all the ranges that you need to include as default and in your select statement use the IN operator inthe where clause to include the range.
    If using range replacethe select-option with the range statement.
    Thanks.
