How to encode Java files in UTF-8 using Apache Ant?
11,848
Ant's <copy>
task has attributes encoding
and outputencoding
.
Single Java File
<copy file="myJavaFile.java" tofile="myJavaFile.java" overwrite="true"
encoding="ISO-8859-1" outputencoding="UTF-8" />
All Java Files in a Directory
<property name="source.dir" location="/path/to/java/files" />
<copy todir="${source.dir}" overwrite="true"
encoding="ISO-8859-1" outputencoding="UTF-8">
<fileset dir="${source.dir}" includes="*.java" />
</copy>
Simply change ISO-8859-1
to the encoding format of your Java files.

In my build.xml file I fetch some Java files by cxf. Some of these Java files need to be encoded in UTF-8. How can I use Ant to change the encoding to UTF-8?
PS: I found instructions for how to set the encoding for javac to UTF-8, but prior to javac I need Java files to be in UTF-8. Otherwise I get an error:
warning: unmappable character for encoding utf-8
Here is my code:
<macrodef name="lpwservice"> <attribute name="name"/> <attribute name="package"/> <sequential> <property name="wsdlfile" value="${portal.basedir}/lpw/wsdl/@{name}.wsdl"/> <mkdir dir="${portal.basedir}/lpw/wsdl"/> <get src="${lpw.baseuri.cxf}/@{name}?wsdl" dest="${portal.basedir}/lpw/wsdl/@{name}.wsdl.new"/> <if> <and> <filesmatch file1="${portal.basedir}/lpw/wsdl/@{name}.wsdl" file2="${portal.basedir}/lpw/wsdl/@{name}.wsdl.new"/> <uptodate targetfile="${portal.basedir}/lpw-wsdl.jar" srcfile="${portal.basedir}/lpw/wsdl/@{name}.wsdl"/> </and> <then> <echo message="${wsdlfile} is up to date" level="info"/> <delete file="${portal.basedir}/lpw/wsdl/@{name}.wsdl.new"/> </then> <else> <echo message="${portal.basedir}/lpw/wsdl/@{name}.wsdl needs update" level="info"/> <move file="${portal.basedir}/lpw/wsdl/@{name}.wsdl.new" tofile="${portal.basedir}/lpw/wsdl/@{name}.wsdl" overwrite="true" /> <java classname="org.apache.cxf.tools.wsdlto.WSDLToJava" fork="true" failonerror="true"> <arg value="-client"/> <arg value="-d"/> <arg value="${portal.basedir}/lpw/src"/> <arg value="${portal.basedir}/lpw/wsdl/@{name}.wsdl"/> <classpath> <path refid="cxf.classpath"/> </classpath> </java> </else> </if> </sequential> </macrodef>
What should I do here to make
<java classname="org.apache.cxf.tools.wsdlto.WSDLToJava" fork="true" failonerror="true">
to encode java files in utf-8?
