Sergey Beryozkin commented on CXF-6765:
---------------------------------------
It is not a bug in Java, it will encode whatever you give to it per
application/x-www-form-urlencoded rules as its docs say.
And what I said is that a path component does not have to be encoded using
application/x-www-form-urlencoded rules.
If UrlUtils is given a hint it is a path then it won't decode plus as a space
> UrlUtils#urlDecode incorrectly decodes encoded path with encoded plus = %2B
> symbol

> Key: CXF-6765
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6765
> Project: CXF
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 3.1.4
> Environment: WIndows 7, Java 8
> Reporter: Karsten Ohme
>
> I'm decoding some matrix parameters. When using a path with an encoded + (=
> %2B encoded), e.g. filterValue=Foobar+%2B+Bar which should be "Foobar + Bar",
> but it is "Foobar Bar", because the %2B is decoded as plus first and later
> decoded as a space.
> The error is produced in
> org.apache.cxf.common.util.UrlUtils#urlDecode(java.lang.String,
> java.lang.String, boolean).
