Is there an UTF8 encoding type with BOM?

[Anonymous]

Hi,
several file-components like tFileInputDelimeted allow to set a custom encoding type like "windows-1252" or "UTF-8". Talend uses "UTF-8" without BOM. Is there an UTF8 encoding type with BOM?

Hi,
So far, talend uses "UTF-8" without BOM.
You'd better contact to the author of custom component tWriteHeaderLineToFileWithBOM directly to get a help.

Hello,
How to use tWriteHeaderLineToFileWithBOM correctly:
1. make sure the schema of the component is not empty and should be the same with the one in the following output component like tFileOutputDelimited.
2. the value in the parameter:"File Name" in the component should be the same with the one in the following output component like tFileOutputDelimited.
3. Encoding in the component should be the same with the one in the following output component like tFileOutputDelimited.
4. the following output component should have the checkbox:"append" ticked.

Hello,
thank you all for your responses. After playing around with the component for a while I chose the proposed solution with "\uFEFF" as row separator.
Kind regards,
