How to read data from a file having unicode in Java?

Question

I have a tsv file and it contains Unicode data like "Pär Lagerkvist's received Nobel Prize in Physics." But while reading it in Java I am receiving output like "P r Lagerkvist's received Nobel Prize in Physics."

I am using the following piece of code for the file reading

BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(fileName), "UTF-8"));
while ((st = br.readLine()) != null) {
    System.out.println(st);
}

Answer 1

I assume you are using Intellij Idea. This case, set console encoding

-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8

On Windows, edit idea.exe.vmoptions file and add the above line.
