Use a servlet filter, like:
public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response,
FilterChain chain)
throws IOException, ServletException
{
logger.debug("set request character encoding to " + encoding);
request.setCharacterEncoding(encoding);
// move on to the next
chain.doFilter(request, response);
}

Subject: URIEncoding and POSTS
I can specify URIEncoding="UTF-8" in Tomcat's connector settings within the
server.xml file. Now, my Tomcat server correctly reads the URL GET parameters
correctly...sending out "Hello, José!" or "Hello, 田中!" as expected.
However, there's still a problem.
What if I want to POST some non-ASCII data, presumably to enter into a backend
database? All is well since I set that URIEncoding flag, right?
Wrong. It turns out that Tomcat, doesn't use this URIEncoding flag for POSTed
form data. So, what does it use? ISO-8859-1 of course! So now, I'm back to
where I started, and my imaginary application still greets Mr. ç”°ä¸ instead of
Mr. 田中. Not good.
Why is this so? Can I get the POST to behave the same as the GET??
