[jdom-interest] Writing foreign languages to XML

[John L. Webber - Jentro AG]

Hi David,

Try setting using an OutputStreamWriter and setting its encoding to
UTF-8, i.e.

BufferedWriter fileWriter = new BufferedWriter(new
OutputStreamWriter(new FileOutputStream(myFile), "UTF-8"));

Your XML header should also declare UTF-8 encoding: <?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?>

I haven't tried this out with Hebrew, but it works fine for me with a
German locale.
