André,
That applies also to webapps which read posted input, unless you are
careful.
No! The default encoding for servlets is ISO-8859-1 unless the client
specifies the encoding (which many do not). The value for file.encoding
is not used here, unless there is a horrendous bug in Tomcat.
Well, just make a simple test :
(I don't really know how to handle JSP pages, I only do servlets and
filters, otherwise I'd do it myself).
- create a simple html form with a UTF-8 charset, with a simple text
input box. Give it a method=POST.
- create a simple webapp which just echoes the input box content
- then start Tomcat alternatively under a UTF-8 locale, then an
ISO-8859-1 locale, type some accented characters in your input box, and
submit the form.
I'm curious about the horrendous bug, because I have seen phenomenons
like this.
