arquillian.xml with accent comments

[kwintesencja]

Hi guys,

i find hard time figuring out this error when running my arquilian tests:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not create new instance of class org.jboss.arquillian.test.impl.EventTestRunnerAdaptor

        at org.apache.xerces.impl.io.UTF8Reader.invalidByte(Unknown Source)

        at org.apache.xerces.impl.io.UTF8Reader.read(Unknown Source)

        at org.apache.xerces.impl.XMLEntityScanner.load(Unknown Source)

the cause was a comment with accent in arquillian.xml

this comment line in arquillian.xml should reproduce the error

<!--ó-->

i got the error when running the tests throught command line 'mvn clean test'

i hope that helps someone

Hi Rafael,

I'm not able to reproduce the issue. Works fine with <!-- +ěščřžýáíééó --> in arquillian.xml, using RHEL 6.4 with en_US.utf8 locale.

My guess is that arquillian.xml is not encoded with UTF-8. It might also be a configuration issue with Maven - your locale is not UTF-8 enabled and Maven chooses platform locale as default.You can fix the latter by putting <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding> into <properties> in pom.xml file.

HTH,

Karel
