"vmArgs": ["-Dfile.encoding=iso885915"] seems to be overided by something else in the java.test.config config

[guillaumeagsp]

Hello

when I put some specific args in the java.test.config, they are passed to code under test, except file.encoding, which is always stuck to UTF-8

"java.test.config": {
        "name": "MonConfig",

        "vmArgs": [
            "-Dfile.encoding=iso8859-15",
            "-DTITI=iso8859-15",
        ],
}

==>

mainid 2023-12-15 16:27:38,655 - INFO  ApplicationProperties - file.encoding = UTF-8
mainid 2023-12-15 16:27:38,657 - INFO  ApplicationProperties - TITI = iso8859-15

It seems that something is overiding this setting

The project is build by gradle. My build.gradle contains something like this :

   tasks.withType(Test) {
        // Configuration spécifique pour toutes les tâches de test des sous-projets
        systemProperty 'file.encoding', 'iso8859-15'
   }

and it work well when i use directly gradle in my vs console

    Test workerid 2023-12-15 16:52:15,934 - INFO  ApplicationProperties - file.encoding = iso8859-15

Found the related code is here: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-java-debug/blob/792249434fa8265a2b40d08956cc1b9dbe46e474/src/configurationProvider.ts#L362-L363.

Will check if it's on purpose
