Karl Heinz Marbaise commented on MSOURCES-113:
----------------------------------------------
Some questions coming into my mind.
The file itself should have an encoding itself for example {{UTF-8}} ? What
about the format of the file? Just something like this (property like):
{code:java}
encoding=UTF-18
{code}
Or do you think about something very plain like this:
{code:java}
UTF-18
{code}
What about a line ending?

> Key: MSOURCES-113
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSOURCES-113
> Project: Maven Source Plugin
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Fred Bricon
> Assignee: Karl Heinz Marbaise
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 3.1.0

>
> It'd be nice if IDEs were able to automatically set proper source encoding
> when attaching sources to project dependencies.
> In eclipse/m2e, we tried to automatically detect encoding but it didn't work
> out [https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/116390/]
> A more reliable way would be to ensure the encoding info was stored inside
> the source archive, so that IDEs could peek into it and ensure proper
> settings.
