Problems with encoding in GWT Designer 7.1

[Eugene]

Why all non-ASCII symbols from widgets (i.e., HTML) are convert to a unicode String representation in source code?
For example, russian letter 'A' converts to "\u0410".

In GWT Designer 6.9 all works fine.

P.S. Sorry for my English

Please give this a try using the latest GWT Designer v7.1 build.

GWT requires Java source files to be in UTF-8 format. Now GWT Designer will check if the source file is in UTF-8 format and write non-ASCII symbols as-is, without escaping (but it will still escape special characters).

If the file is not UTF-8, then we have to escape non-ASCII symbols to make the source compile and show the characters correctly.

Thanks a lot!

Hope that works for you.
