public class CharacterConverter

extends java.lang.Object

This class is used to correctly handle international character convertions. The default character scheme converter is the 8859-1. If you want to use a different one, you must extend this class, implementing the bytes2chars and chars2bytes methods, and then assign the public member of waba.sys.Convert.charConverter to use your class instead of this default one. You can also use the method Convert.setDefaultConverter to change it, passing, as parameter, the prefix of your CharacterConverter class (better look at the implementation to know what to pass on).

To find out which sun.io.CharacterEncoder you're using, do:

System.out.println(""+sun.io.ByteToCharConverter.getDefault());
