POEncoding problem between C# TCP server and Java TCP Client

Body
copied!<p>i'm facing some encoding issue which i'm not able to find the correct solution.</p> <p>I have a C# TCP server, running as a window service which received and respond XML, the problem comes down when passing special characters in the output such as spanish characters with accents (like á,é,í and others).</p> <p>Server response is being encoded as UTF-8, and java client is reading using UTF-8. But when i print its output the character is totally different.</p> <p>This problem only happens in Java client(C# TCP client works as expected).</p> <p>Following is an snippet of the server code that shows the encoding issue: C# Server</p> <pre><code> byte[] destBytes = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("á"); try { clientStream.Write(destBytes, 0, destBytes.Length); clientStream.Flush(); }catch (Exception ex) { LogErrorMessage("Error en SendResponseToClient: Detalle::", ex); } </code></pre> <p>Java Client:</p> <pre><code>socket.connect(new InetSocketAddress(param.getServerIp(), param.getPort()), 20000); InputStream sockInp = socket.getInputStream(); InputStreamReader streamReader = new InputStreamReader(sockInp, Charset.forName("UTF-8")); sockReader = new BufferedReader(streamReader); String tmp = null; while((tmp = sockReader.readLine()) != null){ System.out.println(tmp); } </code></pre> <p>For this simple test, the output show is:</p> <pre><code>ß </code></pre> <p>I did some testing printing out the byte[] on each language and while on C# á output as: 195, 161</p> <p>In java byte[] read print as: -61,-95</p> <p>Will this have to do with the Signed (java), UnSigned (C#) of byte type?.</p> <p>Any feedback is greatly appreciated.</p>
