Compatibility of the AbstractEngine to servlet-api 2.2

           Summary: Compatibility of the AbstractEngine to servlet-api 2.2
           Product: Tapestry
           Version: 3.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Framework
        AssignedTo: tapestry-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: Michael.Frericks@sparkassen-informatik.de


The class AbstractEngine prevents the usage of
Tapestry 3.0-beta-3 under an servlet engine supporting
the servlet-api 2.2 (like ibm websphere 4.0).

The AbstractEngine throws a NoSuchMethodError
in the method AbtractEngine.setupForRequest
on calling the method

request.setCharacterEncoding(encoding);

Wouldn't it be nice to include
a catch-block for backward compatibility
to servlet-api 2.2 like this:

        if (encoding == null)
        {
            encoding = getOutputEncoding();
            try
            {
                request.setCharacterEncoding(encoding);
            }
            catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e)
            {
                throw new IllegalArgumentException(
                    Tapestry.format("illegal-encoding", encoding));
            }
            catch (NoSuchMethodError e)
            {
               // due to compatibility to servletapi 2.2
            }
        }
