I didn't find anything like this in BZ. Any other idea? > Hi Ismael, This is expected behaviour with Java 7. Until Java 6, encoding errors were only presented as warnings. Now they are errors: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/windows/javac.html "This is the default value. No language changes were introduced in Java SE 6. However, encoding errors in source files are now reported as errors, instead of warnings, as previously." You can get around it by specifying -source 1.6, but fixing the source is a better fix IMO.
