What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. prepare any json schema with utf8 characters in description (ex. ščą)
2. generate dto through maven plugin
3. get compilation error: unmappable character for encoding UTF-8

What is the expected output?
.java files encoded in utf-8

What do you see instead?
.java files encoded in ANSI

What version of the tool are you using? On what Java version? (On what
version of Maven/Ant if applicable?)
java 1.6, maven3

The tool supports UTF-8, but at the moment the CodeModel library being used is defaulting to the system default charset when it generates .java files. Are you using Windows by any chance?

It's quite hard to tell CodeModel what charset to use, but I have done it for other tools and we should definitely support his as a configuration argument.

As a workaround you should be able to work around this by either changing your system default charset to UTF-8, or changing the default charset used by the JVM using:

-Dfile.encoding=UTF8

if you're using Maven (and depending on how you have your project set up) you may need to specify this like:

-DargLine="-Dfile.encoding=UTF8"
