XMI post success depends on system default charset

[MichelSc]

I post an XMI to the modelserver.

If the system defaut charset is not UTF-8, we get the exception

ERROR org.eclipse.emfcloud.modelserver.emf.common.util.ContextResponse - An error occurred during data decoding
org.eclipse.emfcloud.modelserver.common.codecs.DecodingException: org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.Resource$IOWrappedException: Invalid byte 2 of 3-byte UTF-8 sequence.

Error is on this line:

emfcloud-modelserver/bundles/org.eclipse.emfcloud.modelserver.common/src/org/eclipse/emfcloud/modelserver/common/codecs/XmiCodec.java

Line 93 in 8e68e4c

result.load(new ByteArrayInputStream(payload.getBytes()), resourceSet.getLoadOptions());

The code encodes the payload string using the default system charset with String.getBytes: NOK.

Workaround: start the executable with -Dfile.encoding="UTF-8"

Thank you for raising this issue. We will take a look at this.
Of course we still happily accept a contribution.
