Answer this question

IDE keeps changing the encoding of the vcproj file

  • bradix

    Those are indeed the encoding of the locale. Can you try to see if these are the source of the issue In other words, confirm that the encoding changes only when you go from a solution with one encoding to one with another encoding

    I can't see a locale setting in the sln file - having said that - all sln's have the same three binary charaters on line one (0xef, 0xbb, 0xbf) as do all the vcproj files that have had their encoding changed from Windows-1252 to UTF-8

    It's possible that the encoding of the *solution* file is causing the IDE to want to override the locale of the project files. Can you verify that the conflicting users have the same locale set in their solutions (.sln file)

    Should have said - "July CPT Professional"
  • ms citizen

     

    Also, to understand the problem better:

     - are all your projects saved with the same code-page are they all utf8 or are they mixed

    - what action are you performing that causes the .vcproj files to get checked out modifying a solution by adding or removing a project or saving the solution

    Thanks,
