Description Alexey Badyaev CLA 2011-11-24 06:09:53 EST 
My C++ compiler (Microsoft Visual C++ 10.0) output localized build messages in current user locale (for me it is ru_RU, encoding for non-Unicode applications is CP1251). Eclipse IDE not permit me to select appropriate encoding of Console View, and I don't can use my favorite tool (Eclipse) for development...

When modifying a launch configuration, you can use the 'Common' tab to set the encoding. Perhaps CDT's builder should provide some way of defining this.

@Thomas - your issue appears to be about Java launches, for Java launches you can set encoding. See screenshot and https://help.eclipse.org/latest/topic/org.eclipse.jdt.doc.user/reference/ref-launchconfiguration-commontab.htm

This bug report is specifically about the encoding in the C Build console. If you are having a JDT bug please report it to that project https://github.com/eclipse-jdt#reporting-issues
