RTC project are configuration xml encoding

Hi,
the RTC configuration XML code has this top level entry that says that the content is UTF-8 encoded.
...xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ...

We have instantiated the JKE Banking example project with German locale. When browsing over the xml code I can see German "Umlaute" ä,ü,... that are not encoded with the proper UTF-8 code.

Example:
                <operation id="com.ibm.team.workitem.operation.workItemSave">                     <preconditions>                         <precondition xmlns="http://com.ibm.team.workitem/requiredProperties" description="Arbeitselemente müssen einer bestimmten Kategorie zugewiesen werden. Eine Zusammenfassung muss bereitgestellt werden, damit das Team schnell feststellen kann, wer für das Problem zuständig ist." id="com.ibm.team.workitem.advisor.requiredProperties" name="Erforderliche Eigenschaften">




Did I interprete sth wrong or is the encoding of the xml simply wrong declared? If so, which encoding is used here?

Kind regards, Marko

Hi Marko

I created a PA with German locale and verified the process configuration source.
For me, it shows UTF-8 only.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

So, for a Project Area with English(US) or German or Korean etc, all shows the character encoding as UTF-8 only.
So, maybe for you the character encoding is wrongly displayed.
You can also verify the machine locale.
