Jackrabbit encoding

[Kurz Wolfgang <wo...@gwvs.de>]

Is there a way to set the encoding for Jackrabbit so all the content is UTF-8 encoded?

Thx in advance:-)

Hi,

Most likely the encoding is broken in the web server (between the
browser and your application). I suggest debugging your application.

If you think it is a Jackrabbit problem, could you please create and
post a simple, standalone test case that reproduces the problem? It
would be great if the test case does not have any dependencies except
Jackrabbit (that is, a Java class that uses the JCR API and is run
using a static main method). Please include any initialization code,
configuration, and the Jackrabbit version you use.

Regards,
Thomas

AW: Jackrabbit encoding

[Kurz Wolfgang <wo...@gwvs.de>]

Well i was thinking properties.

Here is the problem I encounter:

I have a String saved in Jackrabbit under the property Kategorie.
Lets say the string is "Österreich"

I read that string from jackrabbit and display it on my webpage. 
So far all looks fine.

Now I send that same string right back to my jcr doa to do a query for the node with the property of that string.
What gets sent to my dao is somehow encoded differently. 
The "Ö" becomes some weird symbol.

If I do the following in my controller everything works fine:
byte[] utf8Bytes = kat.getBytes("ISO-8859-1");
kat = new String(utf8Bytes, "UTF-8");

So I was wondering where the encoding goes wrong. 

Thx again.

Exactly what content? Node names? Properties other than binary properties?

Exactly what content? Node names? Properties other than binary properties?

I'm not sure what you're after here. All string values in Jackrabbit
(or any JCR implementation) are already Unicode strings, so no
encoding is needed. You'll get the UTF-8-encoded version of a string
when you call the getStream() method on the string value.

Hi,

Could you please clarify what you mean with "all the content"?
