You can specify character encoding for the following objects in Eclipse:
- Files
- You can specify the character encoding for individual files or for all files of a given content type.
- Projects
- Specifying character encoding for a project sets the default for all new files created in that project. You can set character
encoding for projects individually, or for all projects created in an Eclipse workspace.
- Workspaces
- Specifying character encoding for a workspace sets the default for all new projects created in that workspace.
The remaining sections summarize the procedures you can use to specify UTF-8 character encoding in Eclipse. Refer to your
Eclipse user documentation for additional information.
