Hi,

Maybe you should not use character set "UTF-8". I remember
that it's 8-bit Unicode. As I know, Chinese and Korean has
16-bit code. So at least, you should try 16-bit Unicode.
I forgot the name, maybe it's "UTF-16". But I'm not sure if
JDK have fully support to "UTF-16".

I'm not an Unicode expert. I'll be happy if what I say can
be a hint to solve this problem.

Subject: serializing XML to a ServletOutputStream fails


(This might be a bug so I'm cc-ing to tomcat-dev)
Hi,
    I'm trying to serialize some XML out to a ServletOutputStream but
the resulting XML on the client side contains corrupted Unicode
characters (the DOM I'm serializing out contains Chinese, Korean,
English, etc). Here's the code in question:

        response.setContentType("text/xml; charset=UTF-8");
        ServletOutputStream out = response.getOutputStream();

        out.print("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>\n" +
                   "<!DOCTYPE cnrp PUBLIC \"-//IETF//DTD CNRP 1.0//EN\"" +
                   " \"http://www.ietf.org/cnrp.dtd\">\n");
        out.flush();
        OutputFormat format = new OutputFormat(document);
        format.setOmitXMLDeclaration(true);
        format.setIndenting(true); // it makes debuggin easier
        format.setEncoding("UTF-8"); // this is the default anyway
        XMLSerializer serializer = new XMLSerializer(out, format);
        serializer.serialize(document.getDocumentElement());

The XML that the client gets is fine except that the non-ASCII subset
of the UTF-8 encoded Unicode characters are garbled. I can serialize
the XML out to a FileOutputStream and it works just fine.

I'm running Tomcat 3.2.1 that's the backend for a remote
Apache 1.3.17 server using ajp13 (and thus mod_jk).

This code looks like its the right way to do this but either
I've hit a bug or else I'm missing something (an encoding somewhere
between a Stream and a Writer?)
