But, AFAICT, this will not change the charset the JSP's output is created in. Even with -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 JSPs in standard syntax will produce an ISO-8859-1 encoded response if not explicitly told to do otherwise. One means to tell them otherwise is by using the "pageEncoding" attribute of the "page" directive - which is what the OP wanted to get rid of. Another possibility is using the "page-encoding" configuration element. JSPs in XML syntax will by default create an UTF-8 encoded response.
