Charset (Struts and Velocity)
Hi there,
Although,
1. I have defined the charset in struts-config.xml like the following
<controller contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-7"/>
2. In velocity properties I have set both
input.encoding=ISO-8859-7
output.encoding=ISO-8859-7
3. my html templates have the content type set properly
4. my resource files are in the corrent content type
I still get question marks (?) displayed back to the browser when displaying
anything that comes from an ApplicationResource file :(
Thanks in advance.

Just to point out that the data stored in the DB is using cp-1253 :/
So far I didnt have to deal with ResourceBundles so all text was inside the
HTML templates.
I cant seem to understand why setting the output encoding in
velocity.properties to ISO-8859-7 would cause the data coming from the
ResourceBundles not to display properly since *its encoded* in that same
charset :/

Yes, they actually have Greek character so I have saved them in ISO-8859-7
Ok here is what I've done.
I removed the contentType declaration in struts-config.xml
Now, in velocity.properties *if* i put either
"output.encoding=ISO-8859-7"
or
"default.contentType=text/html; charset=ISO-8859-7"
then all data coming from the resource bundles isnt displayed properly (????)
if I remove either declaration in velocity.properties then the data displays
correctly *but* all data (encoded in ISO-8859-7) made available to velocity
via the "request.setAttribute(String, Object)" is displayed as "???".
:S

The quick answer is, "because that's how it's implemented".

But I guess you already know that... So you see, although Java
internally uses unicode, Properties only accepts ascii files for
external storage. Of course, you always have the choice to hack
Struts. ;)

See my webpage and about UnicodeFileResourceLoader
extension.
http://koti.mbnet.fi/akini/java/unicodereader/
My loader handles properly UTF-8 BOM marker, which you
will get if use windows Notepad. Bom marker is a good
thing, but current java readers cannot handle it
properly (but do handle fine UTF-16 bom markers).
Java default uses ISO-8859-1 as an encoding if one is
not explicitly given. It is a source of various
problems in internationalization issues.
I always save all java .properties files as UTF-8 file
and load them with java.io.StreamInputStream instance
or my UnicodeInputStream/Reader utility classes.
If you generate web pages, _always_ assign
response.setContentType("text/html; charset=UTF-8") to
make life easier at browser side.

Ok this is true, and maybe we are getting a bit out of topic but, why cant I
just save the file in UTF-8 format? Isn't that unicode? :/
Also, while searching for a solution I came across the load(InputStream)
method of java.util.Properties which has the value of charset hardcoded to
"8859_1" which made me wonder...

What kind of graph did you have in mind? If the format is not text,
chances are that you won't be able to use Velocity for it.

I have seen these graphs but where i will get
these macros, is it inbuild in velocity engine? or i
have to embeed it from outside.
how to build these varibles .

Re: graphs using velocity
Posted by Dr Daniel Graham <da...@gr8.tv>.
IF you just need a little graph .. say a simple bar chart or line graph,
you can use
a table, and stretch a 1 pixel gif to your desired width ...
<td width="90%"><img src=/imgs/blue1p.gif border=1 WIDTH=163 HEIGHT=12
></td>
<td width="90%"><img src=/imgs/blue1p.gif border=1 WIDTH=120 HEIGHT=12
></td>
and so on.
If you want a line graph, place a 1 pixed gif stretched before it then
draw a single line ..
you can do lot's of things like that with tables .. it's a bit heavy on
HTML but not as much as a JPEG and so on .. and you'll usually only do it
for a limited number of columns.

Re: graphs using velocity
Posted by Will Glass-Husain <wg...@forio.com>.
Hi Prasad,
This probably won't help you, as these are are custom VelocityMacros we
include in our system. (an online simulation engine called Forio Broadcast).
The source is not available, but the macros are fairly simple. (they just
translate names of variables into a img tag with a long URL). Really,
they're just a convenience.
Still, if you're interested you can read our documentation. "Revenue" and
"Costs" are simulation variables specific to our particular system
(basically, they are a series of double values arrayed over time).
http://www.forio.com/broadcastdocs/creating_interfaces/how_to_create_graphs.htm
For more info on Velocity macros, read the Velocity docs.
http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/user-guide.html#Velocimacros
For more info on how to create your own graph servlet, you'll have to read
the docs of the third-party graphing library you end up choosing.

Re: graphs using velocity
Posted by Will Glass-Husain <wg...@forio.com>.
PS. One nice way Velocity can help with graphs is through macros. If you
end up with a long complicated <img> url to generate a graph, abstract this
with a macro. Our Velocity-based system has a number of graph related
macros.
http://www.forio.com/broadcastdocs/creating_interfaces/how_to_create_graphs.htm
For example, in our system the macro
#LineGraph (["Revenue", "Costs"] 400 300)
generates the text
<img
src="graph?FD_rand=1861&FD_graph=1&VariableName=Revenue&VariableName=Costs&Width=400&Height=300"
width="400" height="300">
which instructs our custom-written graph servlet to generate a graph of the
variables revenue and costs over time (in a GIF image sized 400x300).
Best,
WILL

Re: graphs using velocity
Posted by Will Glass-Husain <wg...@forio.com>.
Hi,
I have a Velocity based web application that includes graphs. I don't use
velocity to generate graphs, I use a third party graphing app. My web page
includes a img tag with a special URL which displays a JPEG or GIF graph.
There's a couple of different libraries that can generate the graphs. You
might try JFreeChart if you're looking for a free library. Personally, I
really like the commercial but inexpensive package KavaCharts (includes both
server and client side components). There's also a number of much more
expensive server-side tools.

I would definitely want one in the VVS javadoc and/or view tool top

Didn't know that. Maybe it needs to get it the docs. :)

the VelocityViewServlet (largely in the interest of compatibility with
VelocityServlet) does take the output.encoding property into account,
but only if there is no charset specified within the
default.contentType property.

It's all Java stuff. Java stores data in memory as Unicode, so
everything going into Java must be converted into Unicode. Currently,
there is no way Java can tell whether a file is ascii or Greek or
Japanese or whatever. So, you have to Unicode escape the files.
native2ascii makes life a bit easier. ;)

Shinobu I did that and it worked. Thanks.
Although I find it a bit hard to accept that any resource bundle must be in
that format. That makes life a bit harder :/
Still I cannot understand why setting the output.encoding to ISO-8859-7 in
velocity.properties has that effect I mentioned earlier.
Even more since you pointed out that the output.encoding doesn't matter unless
you're using VelocityServlet or Anakia and Im using VelocityViewServlet

"resource files" and "charset" might be your problem. Do you mean
your resource files have non-ascii characters in it? If so, that's
your problem. They must be escaped java-wise like "\u1234".
cf. http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/Properties.html#encoding

<disclaimer>i've only halfheartedly read this thread and personally
never use non-default charsets</disclaimer>
have you tried setting the default.contentType property that the VVS
looks for?
e.g. "default.contentType=text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
i'm half-doubting that's the problem, but it wouldn't hurt to try.

I meant charset, thanks for pointing that out.

Yeah, everything comes out fine in all except when the output comes from a

Actually, the output.encoding doesn't matter unless you're using
VelocityServlet or Anakia. ;)

Please refresh my memory. Was there a way to specify "content type"
in "resource files"? I thought they were just PropertyResourceBundle
files.

Question marks usually means that the charset converter couldn't find
the suitable character for the conversion. If you spit out some log
from java, is it encoded properly, or do you get question marks there,
too?

VelocityViewServlet Differences with VelocityServlet
Posted by Steve O'Hara <so...@pivotal-solutions.co.uk>.
I've taken the advice offered by everyone to switch to using the
VelocityViewServlet but I've got a strange error occurring which didn't
happen with VelocityServlet (or if it did, it was caught).
When I log out from my application I clear the session object by doing a
session().invalidate()
Now, when the template for the logout screen is merged by Velocity. I get
the following error;
java.lang.IllegalStateException: getAttribute: Session already invalidated
I can't understand this, I don't refer to the session object in my template
so why is the VelocityViewServlet checking the session object? Also, why
doesn't it catch this error gracefully?
