Roo 1.1.0 release - Problem with UTF8 (german and cyrillic)

[khomutetskiy]

I've also modified my pom.xml according to your advice but that didn't fix the issue with non-WesternEuropean characters.
Did you roll back all the other changes mentioned in your previous posts (e.g. CharacterEncodingFilter) and left with changed pom only?

Try to clean up and rebuild your project.
I had compile time encoding problem, which have been resolved by modifying pom.xml file and adding UTF-8 compile encoding. I found it by debugging my application (string in watch window was incorrect). Also you can log your string.

I've resolved this by fix pom.xml like this (see the line red, hope this helps):

Hi, I resolved this issue by disable escaping of form submission contents, move the filter and filter-mapping for CharacterEncoding to the first, and add encoding tags to maven-compile-plugin in my pom.xml.
That's it.

    <context-param>
        <param-name>defaultHtmlEscape</param-name>
        <param-value>false</param-value>
    </context-param>
.....
    <filter>
        <filter-name>CharacterEncodingFilter</filter-name>
        <filter-class>org.springframework.web.filter.CharacterEncodingFilter</filter-class>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>encoding</param-name>
            <param-value>UTF-8</param-value>
        </init-param>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>forceEncoding</param-name>
            <param-value>true</param-value>
        </init-param>
    </filter>

Many thanks - it works fine now. The only thing I had to do was to add <encoding>UTF-8</encoding> to my pom file.

Also, if you want to load message files with UTF-8, change messageSource bean in webmvc-config.xml to:
<bean id="messageSource" p:defaultEncoding="UTF-8"/>
