I just about fell out of my chair when I ran across:
----
public void print(String s) throws IOException {
if (s==null) s="null";
int len = s.length();
for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) {
char c = s.charAt (i);
//
// XXX NOTE: This is clearly incorrect for many strings,
// but is the only consistent approach within the current
// servlet framework. It must suffice until servlet output
// streams properly encode their output.
//
if ((c & 0xff00) != 0) { // high order byte must be zero
String errMsg = lStrings.getString("err.not_iso8859_1");
Object[] errArgs = new Object[1];
errArgs[0] = new Character(c);
errMsg = MessageFormat.format(errMsg, errArgs);
throw new CharConversionException(errMsg);
}
write (c);
}
}
----
The above is from the ServerOutputStream class.
For some reason I was expecting something like:
----
public void print(String s) throws IOException {
writer.write((s == null) ? "null" : s);
}
----
Where "writer" was defined as (roughly):
----
OutputStreamWriter writer = new OutputStreamWriter(
connection.getOutputStream(),
response.getCharacterEncoding()
);
----
What am I missing???
