Character sets

By default the engine uses the character set specified by the OS and the character set of the database. To operate correctly the engine should run in UTF-8. The defaults can be altered with the following steps:

user profile

Open the .bash_profile of the user engine and edit its $LANG environment variable. Set it to

export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
# Java 7
export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8

or any other UTF-8 supporting language.

database

alter table <TABLE> convert to character set utf8;

web.xml

Extend the web.xml with

<filter>
  <filter-name>EncodingFilter</filter-name>
    <filter-class>
      nl.crossmarx.core.wgui.EncodingFilter
    </filter-class>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>encoding</param-name>
      <param-value>UTF-8</param-value>
    </init-param>
</filter>
   
<filter-mapping>
  <filter-name>EncodingFilter</filter-name>
  <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>

engine

Change etc/environment.properties property into

page.encoding=utf-8

JDBC configuration

etc/mysql.properties

useUnicode=true
