org.springframework.oxm.jaxb.Jaxb2Marshaller umlauts and special characters

How can I marshal开发者_JAVA百科 java string object that contain umlauts by using org.springframework.oxm.jaxb.Jaxb2Marshaller ? I have java string like Alizée. After marshalling with using Jaxb2Marshaller i get Alizée xml string.

This can be right, but you are vieving the marshalled XML with the wrong charset (you view UTF-8 as ISO-8859-1/extended ASCII).

I would double-check character encodings and that you are viewing the marshalled XML with the correct encoding.

Example: é is in UTF-8 represented by two bytes: 0xC3 0xA9 http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/00e9/index.htm

These two bytes, represented in for example ISO-8859-1 will read:

• 0xC3: Ã http://ascii-table.com/info.php?u=x00C3
• 0xA9: © http://ascii-table.com/info.php?u=x00A9

If you create a text file containing é and save it as UTF-8. Re-open the file but choose encoding ISO-8859-1 and you will see the same.
