Default Tomcat Encoding

           Summary: Default Tomcat Encoding
           Product: Tomcat 3
           Version: 3.2.3 Final
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Encoding
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: bkw@qad.com


Currently the encoding used for both requests and responses to/from Tomcat are 
by default ISO-8859-1.  What I would like to do is be able to specify the 
character encoding that Tomcat should use for requests & responses to be UTF-
8.  One way to accommodate this is to provided a way of specifying the encoding 
(defaults to ISO-8859-1 for backward compatibility) and modify 
RequestImpl.handleParameters to process the query string into the desired 
encoding and assign the content type in ResponseImpl specify charset=<encoding>.
