I want to print out a String that contains Cyrillic letters (for the sake of example). The problem is that on my output the string will show '?' characters instead. This problem only occurs if I try to print on stdout in a (fresh or not) Neatbeans Maven project.
Below you can see that Maven puts the "-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8" parameter in, so I dont understand why is my encoding not UTF-8. When I create a fresh Neatbeans project (without Maven) the encoding shows UTF-8 and the output is fine.
package com.trashmaven;
import java.nio.charset.Charset;
public class TrashMaven {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("file.encoding=" + System.getProperty("file.encoding"));
System.out.println("defaultCharset: " + Charset.defaultCharset());
String myString = "мусор";
System.out.println("Russian letters: " + myString);
}
}
My pom.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">

The output is the following:

Running NetBeans Compile On Save execution. Phase execution is skipped and output directories of dependency projects (with Compile on Save turned on) will be used instead of their jar artifacts.
