MyFaces cyrillic
Sory if this is not the right place for this posting but i really don't
have an idea and i suspect everything at this moment.
Hi, i am trying to start a simple JSF application that display cyrillic.
The application is exactly one <h:outputtext>. I am using eclipse and i
needed to change the encoding to Windows-1251.
<%@page language="java" pageEncoding="WINDOWS-1251" contentType="text/html;
charset=WINDOWS-1251" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %>
<f:loadBundle basename="resources.application" var="bundle"/>
<f:view>
<html>
<head>
<h:outputText value="#{bundle['welcome.title']}" />
</head>
<body>
<h:outputText value="#{bundle['welcome.heading']}" />
<h:outputText value="#{bundle['welcome.message']}" />
</body>
</html>
</f:view>
In the browser the cyrrilic is broken. I set the browser encoding to CP1251.
I tryed the same example with UTF8.
I use JBOSS 4.0.5
Thanks for the help. I really try to search the forum for the same problem
but i couldnt find a solution.

Well, the 'conventional' special characters were not exactly the problem
of mine. I've switched the encoding for my project and discovered one
day later some mysterious runtime errors, something like "unexpected
bytes in prolog". It took a lot of time to find this bytes, which was
really present but just 'invisible' in other editor/encoding, and the
only hint were that comments in German with 'disappeared' umlauts. It
was really like a nightmare, since the encoding was switched for project
with some hundreds of files but just two or three XML files was affected :)

That is expected eclipse behavior, eclipse tries to retain the data as
valid as possible,
which means if you code a file in iso for instance and then switch to
utf, it keeps the byte values but displays the utf data.
you can try it out, code something with special chars switch the
encoding and switch it back, at the back switch the data will be ok again.
everything you type anew is in the new encoding however.

Hi All,
It's definitively the Eclipse (probably win32 only) issue! I've had the
same problem (but unfortunately no exact solution). If one switches the
encoding of EXISTING file, let's say, from 1251 to UTF8, some
characters becomes converted in very strange way. I.e. German umlaut
becomes expanded into 4 monkey characters and stay in this state after
switching back. This should affect the resource files as well.

It is probably the old encoding, in the file still active, even if you
switch the encoding to utf8 for new files, i do not know how eclipse
behaves with old files, you should be save encodingwise in a new file
you start but probably not in an old one loaded. In older eclipse
versions there was a change encoding on the fly function, I do not know
where it has moved to.
Anyway I am glad it works now. Encoding can become hell once you have to
move out of the utf8 domain.

Hi, I just want to say thanks for the help I solve it. You gave me the
direction to think.
I used native2ascii.exe convertor and it worked. But i still don't see why
without it it do not work as i have set through
eclipse utf-8.
Anyway its ok now. Best regards.

Ok something is going wrong there,
could be a bug, which myfaces version are you on?
I will give it a try tonight in 1.1.5 normally this should
work as expected if the resource file also is in utf-8

I you see the cyrillic text in the <H1>..</H1> it displays correctly on
the web page.
But the text that is taken from the property files comes like monkeys. The
property file is UTF-8 there is no doubgth.
I double checked it. So for some reasone the <h:outputtext> or the
resourcebundle is causing problems.
Do you have any idea?

My browser setting is UTF-8. It is correct, this is not the case. I just
started the application on appache tomcat
results are the same, looks like JBoss is also not the case. This becomes
more and more mistery to me:(

Thanks for the answere. I used the eclipse to change the encoding of
propertyfiles
to UTF-8. And also the encoding of JSP files to UTF-8 unfortunatly there is
no change in
the status. Still only monkeys display. Is it possible the JBoss to
interfere somehow?
Thanks!

Re: MyFaces cyrillic

Ok I indeed assume you have an encoding problem, the webpage probably
has a different encoding than your resource file,
but why wincp 1251, utf8 can handle cyrillc to my knowledge...
if it is because you program in windows, eclipse has an encoding setting
for the editors where you can switch encodings (in newer versions the
default encoding has been moved into the file associations).
It is better to stick with utf8 throghout every possible layer that has
been my experience so far, which means, webpage utf8, resource files
utf8 database utf8, many other charsetzs have browser incompatibilities
or are not supported properly entirely.
(For instance if you go with ISO charsets you run into euro problems on
ie, or general encoding problems on ie forms)
