[Figure]

Set a character encoding as the property value. The following table lists the property values to set and their meanings.

Table 4‒5: Property values to set and their meanings
Value set in the property^#1	Meaning
SJIS	Applies the SJIS encoding.
MS932	Applies the MS932 encoding.
Any other character string	Ignores the specification.^#2

#1

The specified character string is not case-sensitive.

#2

If the specification is ignored, the last specified encoding is valid.

Important note: If the Shift_JIS switch function is not specified, the default encoding is SJIS.

The Shift_JIS switch function property needs to be set for each instance of the classes and interfaces shown below. The following table lists the methods for setting the Shift_JIS switch function. This table lists the methods to use for setting the properties for each class and interface.

Table 4‒6: Methods for setting the Shift_JIS switch function

`javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory`	`setAttribute`
`javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser`	`setProperty`
`org.xml.sax.XMLReader`	`setProperty`
