hi all. i'm trying to internationalize a java webapp that's targetted at
j2ee 1.2 containers. since that implies jsdk-2.2, i'm stuck without the
request.setCharacterEncoding method that was added in jsdk-2.3. assuming
that the browser didn't send a character encoding and i need to forcibly
set the character encoding to UTF-8, can i reliably do this on a
per-parameter basis:
value = new String(request.getParameter("foo").getBytes(), "UTF-8");
and trust that the servlet container will have used the platform's default
character encoding to turn the original byte stream into a String in the
first place, or need i do something like this:
InputStreamReader isr =
new InputStreamReader(request.getInputStream(), "UTF-8");
and parse the request parameters myself?
- donald
