 private static final long serialVersionUID = - 5249591857614335618L;
 private static final String ENCODING = "UTF-8";

 public void afterPhase (final PhaseEvent event) {
 }

 public void beforePhase (final PhaseEvent event) {
 try {
 ((ServletRequest) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance ().getExternalContext ().getRequest ()).setCharacterEncoding (ENCODING);
 ((ServletResponse) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance ().getExternalContext ().getResponse ()).setCharacterEncoding (ENCODING);
 } catch (final UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
 e.printStackTrace();
 }

 }

 public PhaseId getPhaseId () {
 return PhaseId.ANY_PHASE;
 }
