I discovered something very bizarre in Windows XP webfolders. As I
mentioned before, for the case of uploading a file, (PutMethod()) I
could not figure out what character encoding windows was using for the
filename. However for the case of making a new folder (which is
MkcolMethod() followed by MoveMethod()) I figured out what it was
doing. And it is very strange indeed! In
AbstractMultistatusResponseMethod.parseRequest() the desturi is obtained
by:
destinationUri = req.getHeader("Destination");
I added debug code to display the destinationUri as follows:
byte[] bytestr = destinationUri.getBytes( "ISO-8859-1" );
String debugstr = new String( bytestr, 0, bytestr.length, "gb2312" );
Then I looked at my logfile in a browser.
"debugstr" _ONLY_ showed up correctly when the browser encoding was set
to UTF-8.
Could anybody explain to me what the heck all this means? I extracted
the bytes as "ISO-8859-1", then I created a new string using "gb2312",
but it only displays correctly as UTF-8!! I really don't understand
this.
