unable to post unicode characters in struts bridge
--------------------------------------------------
Key: PB-14
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PB-14
Project: Portals Bridges
Type: Bug
Components: struts
Versions: 0.4
Reporter: Thorsten Berger
Using struts forms to post unicode characters (e.g. german umlauts) results in
a String with garbage characters.
I urgently need this to work for my portal, so I tracked down the problem and
found it to be specific to Jetspeed.
I logged a JIRA issue for jetspeed, but maybe this problem also exists when
using the struts bridge with another portal.
The main cause is decoding request parameters twice in
o.a.j.engine.servlet.ServletRequestImpl (line 157):
try
{
paramValues[i] = new
String(paramValues[i].getBytes("ISO-8859-1"), getCharacterEncoding());
}
catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e)
This is called firstly by jetspeed itself (providing parameters to the
StrutsPortlet) and secondly by the Struts RequestProcessor (to populate the
form bean). It's clear that this results in garbage characters.
However, I don't think it's a struts bridge bug. For further explanation and a
solution for Jetspeed, see JS2-376 (request parameter encoding problem)
