Hi Pratik,

Thanks again for your suggestion of using  -Dfile.encoding=Shift_JIS
when we start Java via JNI Invocation. Our initial testing indicates
that this does indeed fix the problem. I am still hoping that this
system property is indeed documented somewhere that I have missed.

Its a general Java System attribute. Some links:

- http://www.jorendorff.com/articles/unicode/java.html
- http://developers.sun.com/dev/gadc/faq/java/files/encodings.html

Doing a search for:

file.encoding java

will turn up some other references.
