Kristian Rosenvold commented on MRESOURCES-171:
-----------------------------------------------

Is project encoding set in your pom ?  
<properties>
        <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
</properties>

                
> ISO8859-1 properties files get changed into UTF-8 when filtered

>                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRESOURCES-171
>             Project: Maven 2.x Resources Plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: filtering
>            Reporter: Alex Collins
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Create:
> src/main/resources/test.properties
> And add a ISO8859-1 character that is not ASCII or UTF-8, do not use \uXXXX formatting.
> When adding this line:
> <resource><directory>src/main/resources</directory><filtering>true</filtering></resource>
> Expected:
> ISO8859-1 encoded file in jar.
> Actual:
> UTF-8 encoded file in jar.
> ---
> If there are any property files (which can only be ISO8859-1) they appear to be converted into UTF-8 in the jar.
