<p>I run the following code through command prompt in Windows Vista.</p>

<p>1) May I know why System.out.println unable to print out Chinese Character in console?</p>

<p>2) I open up the xstream file. The saved value is</p>

<pre><code>&lt;string&gt;???&lt;/string&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>How can I make xstream save Chinese Character correctly?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
