Hi,

When I use the wizards to create a mapping or a config file I am getting an exception:

com.ibm.encoding.resource.exceptions.MalformedInputExceptionWithDetail

One or more characters could not be decoded according to the encoding parameter UTF-16. Position of first invalid character is 1.

When I open the generated file, the encoding is UTF-16 and the content is illisible.

I tested with a Sybase and an Oracle connection.

Any idea?

Herve,

I just tried creating a mapping using our wizards when pointed to a hibernate configuration file encoded with UTF-16 and experienced no problems. I’m using MyEclipse 4.0GA and Eclipse 3.1 Final, just in case you aren’t using these versions, I suggest you download and install them before proceeding further.

I think you see this error after the mapping wizard completes and you try to open the generated mapping file – can you please confirm this? Or do you see the error while the mapping wizard is working?

Do you need your generated mapping files to be encoded UTF-16? If not, can you check the Encoding preference under MyEclipse > Editors > XML and see if that says UTF-16? If it does, please change that to UTF-8 and everything will work fine.
If you do need UTF-16, please change the encoding parameter manually in mapping file generated.

Please let us know if you need further assistance.

Best,
Brian.

I check out the editor parameters and it was set up on UTF-16 , I really don’t know why! I set up UTF-8 and it is working perfect.
