copied!<p>It's due to a <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1835430/byte-order-mark-screws-up-file-reading-in-java">Byte Order Mark problem</a>. Here is a JUnit test case that demonstrates the problem and the fix:</p> <pre><code>package rss; import org.xml.sax.InputSource; import java.io.*; import java.net.*; import com.sun.syndication.io.*; import org.apache.commons.io.IOUtils; import org.apache.commons.io.input.BOMInputStream; import org.junit.Test; public class RssEncodingTest { String url = "http://www.moneydj.com/KMDJ/RssCenter.aspx?svc=NH&fno=1&arg=X0000000"; // This works because we use InputSource direct from the UrlConnection's InputStream @Test public void test01() throws MalformedURLException, IOException, IllegalArgumentException, FeedException { try (InputStream is = new URL(url).openConnection().getInputStream()) { InputSource source = new InputSource(is); System.out.println("description: " + new SyndFeedInput().build(source).getDescription()); } } // But a String input fails because the byte order mark problem @Test public void test02() throws MalformedURLException, IOException, IllegalArgumentException, FeedException { String html = IOUtils.toString(new URL(url).openConnection() .getInputStream()); Reader reader = new StringReader(html); System.out.println("description: " + new SyndFeedInput().build(reader).getDescription()); } // We can use Apache Commons IO to fix the byte order mark @Test public void test03() throws MalformedURLException, IOException, IllegalArgumentException, FeedException { String html = IOUtils.toString(new URL(url).openConnection() .getInputStream()); try (BOMInputStream bomIn = new BOMInputStream( IOUtils.toInputStream(html))) { String f = IOUtils.toString(bomIn); Reader reader = new StringReader(f); System.out.println("description: " + new SyndFeedInput().build(reader).getDescription()); } } } </code></pre>
