yes you're right: I simply used the output stream.
Never do this if you want to output character data.
(Unless you do the encoding yourself, like in
outStream.write( myString.getBytes( "ISO-8859-1" ) );
or you got the bytes from some pre-encoded byte data,
say, from a file; but be sure what the encoding of
that file is!)
I do not think it is very obvious, that the response class is writing the
characters using the platform's default encoding in this case
Yes. And this is true for many, many places in the
Java library. Always watch out if you see some
String being processed using a Stream.
The ServletOutputStream shouldn't have all these
print methods, at least not the one for String.
Nevertheless I checked the javadoc and it correctly says, that
ServletOutputStream is just for binary output (whatever the use of
binary data in a website is).
Images or PDF for example.
