What is the default encoding used by an Object{Mapper,Reader} when reading from an InputStream?

[Francis Galiegue]

Admittedly, I haven't browsed through all the code yet. But I fail to
see what encoding is used in this case.

Is that the system's default encoding? UTF-8? Note: Jackson 2.2.x

Encoding is determined as per JSON specification: either UTF-8, UTF-16 (big- or little-endian) or UTF-32. These are the only legal encodings for JSON as is.

There is no difference between data-binding cases as they all use same streaming parser code path.

In practice it is UTF-8 99+% of time.

What i really wondered is whether it was autodetected, in fact.

[Tatu Saloranta]

Right. It is auto-detected, using suggested algorithm presented in JSON specification.
