> Operating System: Windows 8
> Hardware: Java: home: C:\Program Files\IDV_4.1\jre version: 1.6.0_43 
> j3d:1.5.2 fcs (build4)
> Description of problem:
> 
> Have spun off a .net app to generate some point text files for use with
> IDV. It however appears that Java is having problems ignoring the BOM
> specifically the 3-byte "???" affixed to the beginning of the file used
> to represent UTF 8. The ingest consequently crashes.  Any suggestions
> on how to get around this in IDV, or to mod the ingest routines to make
> them more robust?
