I have a .java file that contains UTF-8 characters. So I told eclipse to use UTF-8 encoding for its .java files. When trying to build it via Jenkins it fails however with

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Compilation failure

.../... unmappable character for encoding ASCII

When browsing to my svn repository I notice that the special characters are encoded using weird signs. Is there a way to get those characters into my repository correctly? Do I have to tell my svn repository to use UTF-8 somehow. Or my subclipse plugin..?

Edit

Updated my question to help others locate the problem.
