Re: How can I set the character encoding to UTF-8?

[Tomasz Pasierb]

If you're using Tomcat, you could try starting it with a -Dfile.encoding="UTF-8" parameter. Tomcat will use UTF-8 internally and will not assume iso-8859-1 encoding for all files for which encoding cannot be acquired. Myfaces should not convert non-ascii characters to html entities with this configuration. There's of course a matter of facelets reading the source file with the correct encoding. I don't know flaceslets and I can't help here. Regards, PaSik Randahl Fink Isaksen napisał(a): Thank you for your suggestion but I would expect MyFaces to be able to output UTF-8 on its own without me putting a filter in front of it. Is there really no built-in approach for serving UTF-8??? Randahl Cagatay Civici wrote: A filter is a common way to do it. If you're not using spring you can come up with your own filter. Very simple indeed, Here's an example. http://www.jroller.com/page/mert?entry=utf_8_encoding_with_jsf Cagatay On 10/30/06, Sean Wesenberg < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: AppFuse uses a spring filter to force UTF-8 character encoding. <filter>         <filter-name>encodingFilter</filter-name> <filter-class>org.springframework.web.filter.CharacterEncodingFilter</filter -class>         <init-param>             <param-name>encoding</param-name>             <param-value>UTF-8</param-value>         </init-param>         <init-param>             <param-name>forceEncoding</param-name>             <param-value>true</param-value>         </init-param>     </filter> http://www.springframework.org/docs/api/org/springframework/web/filter/Chara cterEncodingFilter.html I'm not sure if this is will solve your problem, just something I ran across when checking out appfuse this weekend. -----Original Message----- From: Randahl Fink Isaksen [mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, October 30, 2006 9:15 AM To: MyFaces Discussion; Facelets Users' List Subject: How can I set the character encoding to UTF-8? I am using MyFaces and Facelets and trying to deliver XHTML with UTF-8 encoding, but when outputting national characters they are converted to &#xyz; codes. I have found out that the MyFaces ResponseWriter thinks I want ISO-8859-1 encoding because calling FacesContext.getResponseWriter ().getCharacterEncoding() returns the ISO-8859-1 value. All my Facelet view files are written in UTF-8 and they all state that they are UTF-8 as follows <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> Can anyone give me a hint why MyFaces still thinks I am serving ISO-8859-1 ? I am using the default render kit (if that matters), my facelet views are written as .xml files in which I do NOT have an f:view tag which the Facelet developer's claim is not necessary when using Facelets.
