Go ahead and post an issue in Jira on this. I'm finishing up some other changes to the velocity tags, so I'll get to this as soon as I'm done with what I'm currently working on

Is there any JIRA issue on this, or should it be created to that people interested in this issue could be notified when something will be added/fixed. Are you planning to do some work on this issue or could I propose some code changes to support the webwork.i18n.encoding / velocity encoding ?

I agree with Scott on this, I think the i18n stuff should be in the
webwork.properties file.  However, I also think the ww2 should also
support an optional velocity properties.

Fernando,

IMHO the encoding in webwork should be specified globally using the
webwork.i18n.encoding property, rather than in velocity.properties.

Can you add a JIRA issue for this?

Cheers,
Scott


I didn't add this to JIRA, because I was not sure if this is really some
BUG, or I'm just missing something.
I was hopping to get some clarification here on the list.
I understand that to reduce complexity, there could be
webwork.i18n.encoding property, but that will also reduce flexibility to
configure velocity to each one's specific needs.
I think both options will be able to co-exist peacefully, with
possibility to specify your encoding globally to webwork or just in
velocity.
I would like to hear opinion of others (maybe VelocityResult @author Matt
Ho) in this subject, but probably this is not a priority issue for en_US
people :)

In line 74 of VelocityResult there is:

response.setContentType("text/html");

this doesn't account for different charsets that should be in content-type
if encoding being used is other than ISO-8859-1.

in org.apache.velocity.Template there is method getEncoding() which I
think should be used here to set the charset of content-type i.e.:

response.setContentType("text/html; charset="+t.getEncoding());

This way, it will set content-type with the encoding velocity is
configured with (in velocity.properties encoding can be specified. How
to get velocity to read those properties is another story. In my case I
tried velocity-1.4-dev from CVS and it reads the properties file).

You can argue that if I want diferent encoding in my pages I should use
html:

<meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html;charset=iso-8859-2">

That works in normal cases, but if I need to compress the pages with Gzip
(Content-Encoding: gzip) browsers will just not pay attention to meta and
will set the encoding to what is in Content-Type. That's why I need it to
have the correct encoding in Content-Type.

Am I missing something obvious here?

Thanks
Fernando
