Yup. It should use the encoding once it's manually set, and extract the one
supplied with Content-Type otherwise.
Something like that (pretty much like it's currently done in Tomcat):
public String getCharacterEncoding()
{
// if the encoding is already set (by the previous call, or the "set"
method)
// then just return it, otherwise extract it from the content type.
return encoding != null ? encoding :
encoding = getCharsetFromContentType( getContentType() );
}
Sincerely,
Dmitry.
