No change in behavior, but simply swapped the Plexus wrapper for Java NIO
class.
> Document charset for evaluate goal file output
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MPH-193
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPH-193
> Project: Maven Help Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: evaluate
> Affects Versions: 3.3.0
> Reporter: Garret Wilson
> Assignee: Michael Osipov
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 3.5.1
>
>
> I'm using Java 17 on Windows with
> `org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-help-plugin:3.3.0`. The
> [{{<output>}}|https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-help-plugin/evaluate-mojo.html#output]
> option allows the evaluated information to be sent to a file. But the
> documentation does not say which charset will be used!
> I was afraid that you might be using the system default charset (which would
> be very bad). But I did a test:
> {code:xml}
> <properties>
> <foo><![CDATA[<bar>touché 😃</bar>]]></foo>
> </properties>
> …
> <plugin>
> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
> <artifactId>maven-help-plugin</artifactId>
> <executions>
> <execution>
> <id>foobar</id>
> <phase>generate-resources</phase>
> <goals>
> <goal>evaluate</goal>
> </goals>
> <configuration>
> <expression>foo</expression>
> <output>${project.build.directory}/foo.xml</output>
> </configuration>
> </execution>
> </executions>
> </plugin>
> {code}
> It was a huge relief to find that the output file {{foo.xml}} contained the
> word "touché" followed by a smiley face emoticon, encoded in UTF-8!
> It is a very good thing that you are encoding the file output in UTF-8 and
> not some arbitrary, per-system encoding. But this needs to be documented so
> we'll know that we can depend on that. Thank you.
