Java Digester for UTF-8

Question

how to set encoding type of digester in java.Please help

because I have set the encoding type in xml while parsing using digester finally it gives string something like bytes(grnlநீ00) instead of UTF-8 string.

Is there any possibility to set Encoding type in parser like this ?

digester.addBeanPropertySetter("ECnetGRN/TRANSDATE", "transdate" );--set UTF-8

Answer 1

I do it this way:

InputStreamReader is = new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream("name.xml"), "UTF-8");
digester.parse(is);

Answer 2

I guess you can set encoding to the input stream (xml input) which is passed to digester and it will be taken care.
