RE: Setting JVM == file.encoding = Cp1252

2004-09-08 Thread Allistair Crossley
Ben,

file.encoding is a JVM parameter specified e.g

java -Dfile.encoding=Cp1252 SomeClass

There is no need to set this in server.xml when you can do this in the startup scripts 
for TC. You could even try within Java code

System.setProperty(file.encoding, Cp1252);

 Dear list,
 
 I am new to Java and to TC. When I write all the java.system 
 properties
 to the logfile on my windows machine, I see I am using
 
 file.encoding = Cp1252
 
 on my linux machine this is
 
 file.encoding = iso-8859-15
 
 
 I know I can configure this jvm paramter in the 
 catalina.bat/sh file, but
 is there a way of doing this inside the server.xml or something ?
 
 regards,
 
 Ben

RE: Setting JVM == file.encoding = Cp1252

2004-09-08 Thread Allistair Crossley
hi ben, 

the jvm always operates with utf. Data transferred into or out of the jvm  is in a 
format matching the file.encoding property.

i don't understand why you wish to change the file.encoding. the jvm file encoding 
should really match your file system, that's why on windows it is Cp1252 and on linux 
iso-8859-15.

the file.encoding will not affect the way your request encoding or database encoding 
aligns.

why don't you email me your web.xml, your jsp, your servlet, your JNDI or database 
connectivity config and I will take a look.

 would it be a good idea to convert all my app config files to

 I change this file.enoding setting?

RE: Setting JVM == file.encoding = Cp1252

2004-09-08 Thread Allistair Crossley
Hi Ben,

You appear to be right that this euro encoding is a right bastard. I have no idea how 
I have it working on our production server now.

I have created a mini-webapp for anyone on this list who cares to have a go at this;

www.adcworks.com/encode.zip

Unzip this into an encode folder in your tomcat webapps. Source is included in 
WEB-INF. 

Request the url

http://yourserver/encode/encode.jsp

5 euro symbols should be in the text field. submit this and it goes to a servlet that 
encodes the request as Cp1252 which includes euro. it then sends the string down the 
response stream as Cp1252 and it gets mashed up.

I have tried setting all encoding to utf-8 also but no go.

I have to admit I am stumped now

Anyone..? Anyone..? Bueller..? Bueller..?

 have you tried UTF-8 rather than UTF8 as page encoding?

  Hi Allistair,
 
  Thanks for the reply. Please find attached my test scripts,
  which is an
  attempt at using utf-8.
 
  Its just a simple .jsp page which posts a value to the
  servlet in UTF-8,
  and the result is posted back to the edit page. Currently,
  although setting
  my htmlmeta tag, the EUR symbol is recieved back and is 
 not displayed
  correctly. I believe one I can do this round trip, it should
  work when I
  write to the database.
 
  regards
  Ben

 Dear Allistair, (et.al)
 
 Many many many thanks for ALL your help. The problem has 
 disapeared! oh
 joy, oh rapture unforseen
 
 The problem seemed to disapear when I inserted a filter-mapping where
 servlets are mapped, for the incoming request filter which 
 converts all
 request objects to utf-8 for the application, which was 
 missing from my
 web.xml. Then I set the various page-encoding , etc. (see below)
 
 //v///
 //
 /v//v
 %@ page language=java%
 %@ page contentType=text/html;UTF-8%
 %@ page pageEncoding=UTF-8%
 html
 head
  meta http-equiv=Content-Type 
 content=text/html;charset=utf-8
  titleencoding data test./title
 /head
 
 body  bgcolor=#F3F3F3
 brbrbr
 %
 String reqURL = 
 /InGeoWebEntryTool/servlet/EncodingValidationServlet;
 String strEncodeTest=;
 
 if (request.getParameter(text)!=null 
 !request.getParameter(text).equalsIgnoreCase()){
 strEncodeTest = request.getParameter(text);
 }
 %
 FORM action=%=reqURL% accept-charset='UTF-8' method=post
  input  type=text name=encodeTest 
 value=%=strEncodeTest% size=98
  input type=submit value=post to server style=WIDTH: 120px
 /FORM
 /body
 /html
 
 //v///
 //
 /v//v
 
 Now i have this working using utf-8.  I am sure this will now 
 work for all
 encodings, but I think we shall stick with utf-8.
 
 
 regards,
 
 Ben
