Description:
============
If fileEncoding  and systemEncoding are blank in the .dat file, ASCII will be used for both by default.

ISO-8859-1 and LATIN_1 are one and the same message encodings when used with FA.

If TIBCO Messaging Encoding is UTF-8, then the File System/Content Encoding can be set to ISO8859-1.

File adapter with regard to  'file content encoding' and 'file system encoding' is case insensitive.

Using lower case "utf-8" for "file content encoding" or "file system encoding" for File adapter is the same as using upper case "UTF8".
