charset used to output HTTP header

           Summary: charset used to output HTTP header
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.0.3 Final
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Blocker
          Priority: Other
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: dsontag@google.com


Within our application we call setContentType with charset equal to UTF-16LE.
Tomcat uses this charset when outputing the HTTP header (in addition to the
body), preventing most browsers from recognising the header as an actual header.

Solution: within HttpResponseBase's sendHeaders() method
[src/catalina/src/share/org/apache/catalina/connector], change line 578 to read
 new OutputStreamWriter(getStream()); -- i.e. don't include the new character
encoding.
