I am trying to get Japanese input from a JTextField
(with the getText()
method) and saving that to a File. I am confident that it does get Japanese format from the JTextField
since I can append()
that String
to a JTextArea
and it will be in the correct Japanese Format.
However, when I try to write to a File it only turns to gibberish! I have tried to use an OutputStreamWriter
instantiated with StandardCharsets.UTF_8
and I have tried with a plain FileOutputStream
where I send in the bytes from calling getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8)
on the String. In both cases the resulting file looks more like the following:
日本語ã�¯é›£ã�—ã�„ã�¨æ€�ã�†ï¼�å¦ã�³ã�Ÿã�„ã�ªã‚‰ã€�日本ã�§ä½�ã‚€
Which is not what I want, naturally. Does anyone have any idea what the issue might be?
I'm pretty sure you are creating the file with ISO-8859-1 instead UTF-8.
I'm also inferring you are using Eclipse because your previous questions.
Change your workspace settings
Window -> Preferences -> General -> Workspace : UTF-8
Default encoding for all content types
TestClass
This is the class i used to test the theory
import java.io.BufferedWriter;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.OutputStreamWriter;
import java.io.Writer;
public class test {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
File fileDir = new File("test.txt");
String japanese = "路権ち点節ヤトツ限聞ド勇売質タカア";
Writer out = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(new FileOutputStream(fileDir)));
out.append(japanese);
System.out.println(japanese);
out.flush();
out.close();
}
}
Input/output with different settings
OutputFileISO: 路権ã¡ç¹ç¯ã¤ããéèãå売質ã¿ã«ã¢
OutputFileUTF8: 路権ち点節ヤトツ限聞ド勇売質タカア
