> Converting line endings corrupts ISO-8859-1 files when platform encoding is
> UTF-8
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MASSEMBLY-371
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-371
> Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-2, 2.2
> Environment: Linux with platform encoding set to UTF-8
> Reporter: Håvard Wigtil
> Assignee: Dennis Lundberg
> Fix For: 2.4

> Converting line endings for a text file encoded in ISO-8859-1 replaces any
> character in the set above ASCII with the three characters ï¿.
> What happens is that the file to be converted is read as text in the platform
> encoding (seems to be method readFile in class FileFormatter), and when the
> platform encoding is UTF-8, any non-ASCII character from ISO-8859-1 is
> converted to the UTF-8 character "�" (i.e. the placeholder for unknown
> / broken character).
> I've attached a small sample project that shows this problem on Linux with
> platform encoding set to UTF-8.
> I see two possible fixes for this, one is to read the file as bytes and do a
> search /replace for line endings, and the other is to be able to specify
> encoding for a fileset or file.
