Tomcat 4.0.2 b multibyte issue.

[Thom Park <tp...@borland.com>]

Craig et.al.

Recently I posted a vague question w.r.t. Multi-byte support in tomcat 
4.0.2.
Somewhat similar to the oracle at delphi, by asking a general question, 
I got a general answer.

I now have a specific case where there appears to be a problem with 
multi-byte support in the
latest tomcat.

In the attached jsp, try cutting and pasting the double-byte chinese 
character displayed by the browser
into the input field and hit the submit button.

You should see that the character does not get displayed correctly.

Is this a usage problem on my part or some problem with the character 
encoding?

It appears to indicate that the somehow the byte stream is not being 
interpreted properly by tomcat.

The JSP spec assumes a default character encoding of ISO-8859-1 for GET/POST
parameters.
You will need to convert the parameter strings received by servlets/JSP
pages into bytes with
their character encoding as ISO-8859-1 and convert them back to Java strings
with your own
favorite character encoding(s).
