java - Read file and write file which has characters in UTF - 8 (different language) -

i have file has characters like: " joh 1:1 ஆதியிலே வார்த்தை இருந்தது, அந்த வார்த்தை தேவனிடத்திலிருந்தது, அந்த வார்த்தை தேவனாயிருந்தது. "

www.unicode.org/charts/pdf/u0b80.pdf‎

when use following code:

bufferedwriter = new bufferedwriter (new outputstreamwriter(system.out, "utf8")); 

the output boxes , other weird characters this:

"�p�^����o֛���;�<�ayՠ؛"

can help?

these complete codes:

file f=new file("e:\\bible.docx");         reader decoded=new inputstreamreader(new fileinputstream(f), standardcharsets.utf_8);         bufferedwriter = new bufferedwriter (new outputstreamwriter(system.out, standardcharsets.utf_8));         char[] buffer = new char[1024];         int n;         stringbuilder build=new stringbuilder();         while(true){             n=decoded.read(buffer);             if(n<0){break;}             build.append(buffer,0,n);             bufferedwriter.write(buffer);         } 

the stringbuilder value shows utf characters when displaying in window shows boxes..

found answer problem!!! encoding correct (i.e utf-8) java reads file utf-8 , string characters utf-8, problem there no font display in netbeans' output panel. after changing font output panel (netbeans->tools->options->misc->output tab) got expected result. same applies when displayed in jtextarea(font needs changed). can't change font windows' cmd prompt.

because output encoded in utf-8, still contains replacement character (u+fffd, �), believe problem occurs when read data.

make sure know encoding input stream uses, , set encoding inputstreamreader according. if that's tamil, guess it's in utf-8. don't know if java supports tace-16. this…

stringbuilder buffer = new stringbuilder(); try (inputstream encoded = ...) {   reader decoded = new inputstreamreader(encoded, standardcharsets.utf_8);   char[] buffer = new char[1024];   while (true) {     int n = decoded.read(buffer);     if (n < 0)       break;     buffer.append(buffer, 0, n);   } } string verse = buffer.tostring();
