Chinese Characters with YAML

[Connor Tumbleson]

I haven't add any luck yet supporting Chinese chars, I looked over documentation and Unicode is enabled by default so confused as to why it doesn't work.

I get a nasty stacktrace like this.

Exception in thread "main" org.yaml.snakeyaml.error.YAMLException: java.nio.char

Hi,
SnakeYAML has a zillion of tests that check the whole Unicode set.
(we have happy users in China :)

I am afraid you do not use Unicode properly. If you create your own Reader do not forget to specify the encoding.
Feel free to submit a failing test to prove the opposite.

Cheers,
Andrey
