[Bug 57854] New: Allow customisation of
org.apache.coyote.Constants.DEFAULT_CHARACTER_ENCODING
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57854
Bug ID: 57854
Summary: Allow customisation of
org.apache.coyote.Constants.DEFAULT_CHARACTER_ENCODING
Product: Tomcat 8
Version: trunk
Hardware: PC
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: Catalina
Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
Reporter: peter@peterphi.com
When processing UTF-8 data from browsers it is still necessary to use a filter
to call request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8") when the browser does not specify
the charset in the request content type.
It should be possible to set the default character encoding in a similar way to
the URIEncoding="UTF-8" attribute being available on Connector (especially
since URIEncoding now defaults to UTF-8 as of Tomcat 8, but query string / form
params are still parsed as ISO-8859-1).

--- Comment #1 from Christopher Schultz <ch...@christopherschultz.net> ---
Tomcat is behaving per the HTTP spec: if the client does not specify a
Content-Type including a character set, the server is required to assume the
default, which is ISO-8859-1.
If you would like to override Tomcat's spec-compliant behavior, you may either
call request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8") yourself, or use the
CharacterEncodingFilter which now ships with Tomcat.
Please see this document for more details:
