1.6 UTF-8

This work fine when i run on windows , but when i do it on Ubuntu , it's get the java file with © and my build fails

Answer 1

You entered the copyright character with UTF-8 encoding, but are displaying the file or page in a single byte encoding such as Latin-1 or Windows-1252. You'll have to be a little more specific about what's going on. If you're producing HTML for a browser, try not to hard code (binary) non-ASCII characters in general code (ie, non-"language" files), but use HTML entities instead.
