Hi all,
I have the following situation:
A database with all tables specified to default to UTF8 encoding.
Adaptor URL containing useUnicode=true&setContentEncoding=UTF8
A record in one table that holds the € currency symbol.
I am loading a WOComponent page to edit values etc., using a form.
Everything was fine and one day all the € symbols started appearing
as '?'. Clearly something changed somewhere on the server but I don't
know what. Anyway, the €msymbols that are appearing this way are
displayed by using a WOString. The value it displays is from
defaultCountry which is a variable of type COUNTRY loaded from the
database and stored in the Session class.
€ symbols that were entered on the form, when added to a display
group for example, would appear as â¬.
I've had a look around and what I found was this suggestion:
Put this in Application class:
public void takeValuesFromRequest(WORequest r, WOContext c) {
r.setDefaultFormValueEncoding("UTF8");
super.takeValuesFromRequest(r,c);
}
public void appendToResponse(WOResponse r, WOContext c) {
r.setContentEncoding("UTF8");
super.appendToResponse(r,c);
r.setHeader("text/html;charset=utf-8", "Content-Type");
}
Which I did. It helped to a certain extent. It seemed to fix the
problem with the form values, which now displayed correctly, but the
'?' still appears where the value is displayed with WOString. Then I
found another suggestion:
Put this in Application class:
public WOResponse dispatchRequest(WORequest aRequest) {
aRequest.setContentEncoding("UTF-8");
WOResponse aResponse = super.dispatchRequest(aRequest);
aResponse.setContentEncoding("UTF-8");
return aResponse;
Doing this solved the problem of the '?' but reverted the form values
to display as â¬.
No matter what I do, there doesn't seem to be a way to get them both
to display correctly. Any ideas?
Regards,
David.
