Encoding issues with Roo in STS 2.6 tcServer

[gsmiro]

Folks,

I started working with Spring Roo and STS 2.3 some time ago and started facing issues with encoding of latin characters - the characters would get to my controller methods all weird.

After posting to the Roo forums and upgrading to STS 2.6, I found out that the issue only happens in STS tcServer. If I run my app in a standalone tomcat or through maven tomcat plugin, the encoding issues goes away.

I tried to set URIEncoding to UTF-8 in the http connector but it didn't resolve the issue.

Any ideas?

There's very little difference between tc Server and Tomcat, and in terms of character encoding there should be no difference at all.

If you'd like us to investigate further, we'll need detailed steps to reproduce the problem. A sample Roo application that exhibits the problem would be ideal.
