Thanks for your prompt answer. I already read about the encoding on wiki.
The code that does the logic is in XmlPullParser.java:
if (this.encoding == null)
{
// Use JVM default
bin.reset();
markup = Streams.readString(bin);
}
else
{
// Use the encoding as specified in <?xml encoding=".." ?>
// Don't re-read <?xml ..> again
// Ignore ALL characters preceding <?xml>
markup = Streams.readString(bin, encoding);
}
The Streams.readString uses java.io.InputStreamReader with default or
supplied encoding. It is also clear that settings.setDefaultLocale() will
not be in action.
I think that there should be more control over the input markup encoding. I
cannot change the JVM default encoding (or can I?) and if I want to produce
XHTML that will switch IE into standards compliant mode (see
http://www.wellstyled.com/html-doctype-and-browser-mode.html), I have to
ommit XML declaration.
Fortunately I found a solution (at least for Wicket 1.0). I will override
the configureResponse() method. The body will be the same as the
Page.configureResponse(), I will just comment out the
response.write(markupStream.getXmlDeclaration());
Side note: Wicket is bright new and nice package, I am surpriced that it
doesn't support HTML 4.0 / XHTML Strict mode standards and that nobody
complains about it. The samples for Wicket are not valid.
