This Eclipse plugin adds the following features to Eclipse:

  • Show the encoding of the current editing text file in the trim area.
  • Use the ICU component to detect the possible encodings of the current editing text file, and alert you to change encoding if the encoding may not be set correctly.
  • Allow you to change encoding through the popup menu.

But no alert for wrong encoding

Submitted by Yat Shing Tsoi on Mon, 2016-06-20 11:12

Good to see clone with more features, but why remove the alert feature? I think this feature is important.

Alert feature is good, but I

Submitted by Shinji Kashihara on Fri, 2016-06-24 09:55

Alert feature is good, but I wanted to suppress it .
It might be able to switch configuration in the future.

Wonderful!

Submitted by Everton Agner on Thu, 2011-02-17 13:46

Very useful tool (the whole feature should be included on eclipse itself), it really helped me out with some weird bugs with encodings :)

Zend Studio 7.2

Submitted by Inside Mising name on Wed, 2010-08-18 04:35

I have installed on Zend Studio 7.2, but it but it didn't display. Can you help me?

Thanks for your quick reply ;-)

Submitted by Bertrand GILLIS on Fri, 2010-02-12 15:54

Actually I've been using Eclipse 3.5.1... but I've been using the classic update functionality to install plugins. That way I can choose the folder where I'd like to install the plugin in.

I don't have any issue with other plugin update sites so far but all these sites are providing a site.xml. Maybe you could add that file for backward compatibility.

Added site.xml

Submitted by Yat Shing Tsoi on Fri, 2010-02-12 22:53

Should be OK now. Thank you for your suggestion.

mmisingnameii7's picture

Excellent !!!

Submitted by Bertrand GILLIS on Sat, 2010-02-13 12:04

Thank you very much... everything is working flawlessly now.

Invalid update site

Submitted by Bertrand GILLIS on Fri, 2010-02-12 08:43

The update site doesn't provide a site.xml.
So it's not possible to install the plugin through Eclipse.

tshing's picture

Maybe, you are not using Eclipse 3.5

Submitted by Yat Shing Tsoi on Fri, 2010-02-12 11:04

I exported the update site from the FileEncodingInfo feature using Eclipse 3.5. And I can update from the update site fine. I have no experience developing plugin for previous versions of Eclipse, maybe, site.xml is not needed anymore.
