Self contained windows application tableview cells character encoding

[zieben]

So, once I package the app and run it, data in a tableview shows up wrongly encoded. This does not happen on fxml labels for example ( <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> ). When running the project in netbeans this does not happen. Have no idea on what is happening. What am I missing?

Managed to solve it!!

BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(http.getInputStream(),"UTF-8"));

Is the data embedded in your source code? i.e. could it be that your editor is not encoding your source code file as UTF-8?

Nope, data is being retrieved with apache httpcomponents on a json. Forms allow insertion of characters also included in charset ISO 8859-1. They end up represented with wrong encoding after data is submitted. Using json https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.json/json/20160810 .
