Per File Encoding

[filipe-maia]

Hi.

I work in a company where everybody is free to use the software they want to develop, as long as the applications developed work without any issues.
Some of us use JDeveloper, others use IntelliJ, Eclipse, etc..
It's good to work in a place where there are no IDE restrictions.

The problem I'm currently facing with NetBeans: Some of our older projects have multiple encodings, JAVA and PROPERTIES files are in Windows-1252, POM, XML and XHTML files are in UTF-8 (with the encoding="UTF-8" in the top of the file); The POM files are correctly configured, with the <project.build.sourceEncoding>Cp1252</project.build.sourceEncoding> and everything compiles correctly and works without any issues; I can't find a way for NetBeans to support Per File Encoding, NetBeans just assumes everything is 1252.

Am I missing any hidden option in NetBeans?

I found this old issue:
https://bz.apache.org/netbeans/show_bug.cgi?id=157498
But I don't know if it was already corrected or not (can't find this issue in GitHub).

Thanks.
