Hi all,
I am trying to solve an encoding problem between a Java client, which is a
Spring Boot server application that runs on Windows, and a rdf4j-server running
on Tomcat 8 on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
I should retrieve correct data with Danish characters (e.g. "Fælles
forståelse") from the server, but instead I get the ASCII-interpretation
("Fælles forståelse").
I've observed the following:
- The client application generates a Model with the correct UFT-8 encoding.
- The client application correctly inserts model in the server via the
Atomgraph InsertDataBuilder and RDFConnectionFactory.connect(postUrl);
insertConnection.update(insertRequest).
- The rdf4j-server then contains the correct context, as I can see in the
rdf4f-workbench. (The presentation of the data in the workbench seems ASCII/
has garbled Danish characters, but when I double-click to edit the data and a
form opens, I can see that the characters are represented correctly.)
But when I then query the repository from my client application again, I
retrieve ASCII (or it seems), instead of the correct UTF-8 encoded data.
I use the following straightforward approach for the SELECT query:
Query query = QueryFactory.create(queryString);
QueryEngineHTTP qexec =
QueryExecutionFactory.createServiceRequest(getEndpoint(), query);
ResultSet resultSet = qexec.execSelect();
while (resultSet.hasNext())
{
QuerySolution querySolution = resultSet.next();
resultMapper.processQuerySolution(querySolution);
...
}
I could not find a way to force the QueryExecutionFactory or QueryEngineHTTP to
interpret the returned ResultSet as UTF-8.
Does anyone have a solution or idea how to address this...? Much appreciated.
Kind regards, Mark
