UTF-7 byte-order-mark? - SyntaxEditor for Windows Forms Forum

Shouldn't I get a UTF-7 preamble on a text file that I save with this encoding? From my understanding, it should be 2B 2F 76 38 2D or ASCII "+/v8-". I am getting the proper BOM for the following encodings, however:

UTF-8 EF BB BF
UTF-16 (little endian) FF EE
UTF-16 (big endian) FE FF

Thanks

Our save file code is very simple and uses the .NET framework to do all the handling of encoding. Here is our code:

StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(stream, encoding);
writer.Write(this.GetText(lineEndStyle)); 
writer.Flush();
writer.Close();

So if that code doesn't properly output the text, then it must be something wrong with the .NET framework.

Well thats not unheard of :) Thanks for the reply.

The latest build of this product (v24.1.0) was released 3 months ago, which was after the last post in this thread.
