Question

I have issue with spanish characters in java string. I have a content in a file and when i try to transform it to java object using InputStreamReader, the output of some string is “cómo” which should be “cómo”. This is happening other spanish like

á = á
é = é
í = í
ó = ó
ú = ú

and more..

Could you please help me to convert it appropriate output.

Thanks in advance

Have you tried to specify the character encoding in the constructor of InputStreamReader, like so:

FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("file.txt");
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(fis, "UTF-8");
