Kana characters? (was Re: [jdom-interest] HELP!) 2007-05-21 - By Grzegorz Kaczor

Hello,
I believe that the XML APIs like JDOM, XOM and similar do notimplement their
own UTF-8 (See http://UTF-8.ora-code.com) or any other encoding and useJava-implemented encodings instead. And
I believe that modern JavaUnicode implementation is based on Unicode 4.0 and
Kanji is one ofimplemented scripts. So it should work.

I don't see anything extraordinary in creating an XML file with suchcharacters.
You can just paste them from webpages to your Java editor,I believe. However,
if your default system encoding is not UTF-8 (See http://UTF-8.ora-code.com), youshould use a switch when
compiling:
javac -encoding utf8 Utf8Test.java
If you have an XML file encoded with UTF-8 (See http://UTF-8.ora-code.com), you can omit the encodingin the
declaration - it is by default UTF-8 (See http://UTF-8.ora-code.com). However if you use lotsof non-standard
characters (for example, from outside of BMP), I wouldconsider using UTF-16 (See http://UTF-16.ora-code.com) to
decrease the file size.
To be strict, glyphs are graphical representations of characters.UTF-8 (See http://UTF-8.ora-code.com) and
other encodings only encode Unicode character codes assequences of bytes. Even
if you can process the characters using JDOMyou may be still unable to see them
due to missing fonts, for example.
