Polish characters from other web application.
I had requirement of retrieving the login details like user_id,name from parent web application. At present I am retrieving by . request.getParameter("user_id") request.getParameter("name") Some times names can be in Polish language from parent web application. What changes i need to make in my JSP Struts web application in order to retrieve the polish characters >From URL by http request with out corruption in characters. Could you please advice if the following code is correct Example: if(request.getParameter("name")!=null){ strTemp = request.getParameter("name"); if(strTemp!=null && !"".equalsIgnoreCase(strTemp)){ strTemp=processText(strTemp); } } /** * This method is used to process the text coming from HttpRequest. * ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 * @param strText * @return strResult */ private String processText(String strText){ String strConvertedMessage =null; String strResult=null; if(strText!=null && !"".equalsIgnoreCase(strText)){ try { strConvertedMessage = new String(strText.getBytes("ISO-8859-1"), "UTF-8"); } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } strResult=strConvertedMessage; }else{ strResult=strText; } return strResult; }
