R: encoding problem

2002-10-25 Thread Luca Morandini
Bert,

try iso-8859-1 as the default XML serializer encoding.

Best regards,

P.S.
Search the mailing list's archive for more information on serializers'
encodings.

 Oggetto: encoding problem


 Hi all,

 I have a mySQL database with varchar fields containing foreign characters
 (ex. ë)  Queries in the mySQL client yield correct results.
 When I do a query using the SQLTransfomer or esql the non ASCII
 characters
 are not presented properly.  The ë is converted to ë

 Here's the pipeline:
 map:match pattern=members/getmemberdata
map:generate type=serverpages src=test/test2.xsp/
map:transform type=sql
  map:parameter name=use-connection value=bvar/
/map:transform
map:serialize type=xml/
 /map:match

 All the serializers have the encodingUTF-8/encoding tag.
 The XSP file has a ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? header.

 Isn't UTF-8 the correct encoding for European characters, or is something
 else wrong?

 Bert

R: R: encoding problem

2002-10-25 Thread Luca Morandini
Bert,

I can only say that I had your same problem and solved it by replacing utf-8
with iso-8859-1 in the serializers' encoding; moreover, AFAIK, the default
is utf-8 (as it should be, since XML has utf-8 as default).

 Of course I checked the mail logs before bugging the list.  I could not
 find a solution though.  I did find that I need to use UTF-8 and not
 iso-8859-1 (the Cocoon default)

 Searching through the source I found that a LOT of classes and XSLTs set
 the encoding to iso-8859-1, so I am replacing these to UTF-8 and will
 recompile afterwards.  Lets see what that gives.

Hmm, strange.  I started having the problem when the serializers were set 
to iso-8859-1.
More reading and testing coming up. :(

Bert, 

I cannot imagine that the above would help, nor would changing the
encoding of the serializer. Both UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 support the
characters you're having problems with.

My guess is that the problem is either with mysql itself or with the
mysql jdbc driver. Maybe your mysql client inserts the data incorrectly
in the database? Try using a Java-based mysql (jdbc) client to insert
the data into the database (or write a small java-prog).

I'm also running mysql over here with cocoon etc (all in linux) and have
no problems with special characters. But of course that doesn't help you
;-)

Regards.
