I could not find a good recipe for inserting Arabic entered on a GWT
page into a text field to be inserted into MySQL as anything other
than "?????????". Here is a simplified example
CLIENT:
private RichTextArea arabicNameField = new RichTextArea();
//First thing we discovered is this only reliably works in a
RichTextArea, a TextBox does not seem to work for arabic
myService.insertText(arabicName, new AsyncCallback<Void>() {
public void onFailure(Throwable caught) {
System.out.println(caught.getMessage());
}
// we don't do anything here for saving
public void onSuccess(Void result) {
return;
}
});
SERVER:
//The Key is in the UTF encoding and getting the bytes rather
than
the text
String queryString = "insert into names (arabicname) values
(?)";
mySqlStatement = con.prepareStatement(queryString);
try {
mySqlStatement.setBytes(1,
arabicName.getBytes("UTF-8"));
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
mySqlStatement.setString(1, "Unable to Encode Name");
}
mySqlStatement.executeUpdate();
mySqlStatement.close();
con.close();
