Eclipse text editor drops UTF-8 BOM from text files. - If BOM exists in file, it must be retained. There always is reason why it is put there. -- Configuration Details -- Product: Eclipse IDE 4.12.0.20190614-1200 (org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.product)Installed Features: org.eclipse.jdt 3.18.0.v20190605-1800 Versioning Plugin: org.eclipse.platform 4.12.0.v20190605-1801
Works for me in 4.12 and recent build. If I just save the file BOM is preserved. Did you mean Save as? That would be bug 64567.
