Gunnar Wagenknecht commented on SOLR-443:
-----------------------------------------
So what about making this configurable? It looks like the server side allows
both ways. It looks to me that {{Content-Type:
application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8}} basically works but there is
no 100% guarantee. On the other hand, multi-part POSTs have a guarantee but
come with a performance penalty. I think it would be fair to document both
option and let the API client decide which one would better fit his use case.

> Affects Versions: 1.2
> Environment: Tomcat 6.0.14

> When sending a query via POST, the content-type is not set. The content
> charset for the POST parameters are set, but this only appears to be used for
> creating the Content-Length header in the commons library. Since a query is
> encoded in UTF-8, the http headers should also specify content type charset.
> On Tomcat, this causes problems when the query string contains non-ascii
> characters (characters with accents and such) as it tries to parse the POST
> body in its default ISO-9886-1. There appears to be no way to set/change the
> default encoding for a message body on Tomcat.
