JSONParser.parse not working for UTF-8 encoded file #88

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a json file with utf-8 encoding in any text editor (I used Notepad++)

2. parser.parse(new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new 
FileInputStream(fileName), "UTF8"))); 

3. Always giving error : Unexpected character () at position 0.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It should give a parsed JSONObject

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
json-simple-1.11.jar on Windows-7

Please provide any additional information below.

You may have an incorrect UTF-8 BOM in your file.I am attaching the correct 
file format. You may want to compare these 2 files in hex mode.

Additional note: this is caused by the additional BOM (EF BB BF) in the 
beginning.Please un-check the "BOM" option (if any) when you save your file.
