Hello,

I’ve a big problem using the MyEclipse XML Editor: When I save a XML file which contains german umlauts the umlauts will be replaced by special characters like ä.

This problem only occures only if a file association with an other file as *.xml exists. I can reproduce the error as follows:

1.) Open Window->Preferences->Editors->File Associations
2.) Add the file type *.jxt
3.) Associate the editor MyEclipse XML Editor
4.) Create a new file foo.jxt
5.) Add <test>ö</test>
6.) Save the file
7.) Reopen the file. The file now contains: <test>ö</test>
8.) Open the file foo.jxt with another editor like Windows Editor -> The file contains the special characters, too.

My Environment:

Eclipse SDK
Version: 3.1.0
Build id: I20050627-1435

MyEclipse Enterprise Worbench 4.0.3

Do you know a workaround for this?

Thank you a lot.

Regards
Stephan

Stephan,

Asociate the jxt extension with the XML content type instead (you might need to remove the File Association before this)
Window > Preferences > General > Content Types > Text > XML > MyEclipse XML Content type – Press Add and add the jxt extension.

Hope that works out for you,
Best,
Brian.
