How to set charset for .properties files?

Hello everybody,I would like to set charset for .properties files in NetBeans. I want to use iso-8859-2 charset. I heard that best way is write properties files straight unicode. Is that true? Thank you in advance.Jan :)

I recommend using utf-8 as the encoding for properties files. But remember that you also need to run native2ascii on them (comes with the JDK).

Thank you!I used native2ascii utility but I had to write my properties file in windows-1250 not in iso-8859-2. In second case the utilizer converted file to wrong unicode. Jan

I'm not really sure how an .properties file is "compiled", but since you use NetBeans, maybe you could take a look at the other post:

The original poster there had found out how to set UTF-8 as default encoding for his files (quoted: Tools / Options / Editing / JavaSource / Default Encoding)
