Description

In org.apache.openejb.assembler.classic.Assembler:

final InputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(serviceInfo.properties.getProperty("Definition").getBytes());
final Properties p = new SuperProperties();
IO.readProperties(is, p);

The string is first converted to a byte array in the default encoding (e.g. UTF-8) but IO.readProperties expects the stream in ISO 8859-1. So it would be wise to use getBytes("ISO-8859-1").

As a workaround one may escape the special characters using \u....
